Harry Hartog is a proud partner for the Karajia and Environment Awards for Children’s Literature and 10% of sales from any of the shortlisted titles will be donated back to the Wilderness Society.

Through reading, we can learn about animals that live in far off places, explore deep into the soil to see how microbes support plants, or have complex emotions and messages distilled into language that we can understand.

In 2022, the Wilderness Society launched the Karajia Award for Children’s Literature. This new award celebrates this continent’s First Nations authors and/or illustrators. This award honours connection to Country and stories that explore land, community, culture and language. First Nations people have been stewards of this continent’s natural world for tens of thousands of years, and continue to be so.

Nature Book Week will be celebrated 11th –19th October 2025 with the winners of both the Karajia and Environment Awards for Children’s Literature will be announced during this week!
