儿童文学
The council established four annual Canada Council Children's Literature Prizes in 1975, two each for children's book writers and illustrators, which remained outside the "Governor General's Awards" rubric through 1986. The Governor General's Award for Literary Merit encompassed as many as 8 annual awards until expansion to 14 in 1987. For Children's Literature Prize winners 1975 to 1986, see "Children's literature" (2) and "Children's illustration" (2) in the footer navigation box.
