Children’s Book Awards 2010

Visit http://www.ala.org/ala/awardsgrants/index.cfm
and learn more about the awards for excellence in Children’s literature.

But— do stop and ask yourself:

~ Which books do you love that never won an award!
~ Which books do you think deserve an award?
~ If you could make up an award—what would it be?

Let’s congratulate the award winners and at the same time, not let our taste be dictated only by awards. Some of the award winners~
