Children's Book Award Handbook
Teacher Ideas Press | Diana Marks | March 2006
ISBN 10: 1591583047
ISBN 13: 9781591583042
Diana Marks looks at children’s and young adult book awards in depth. The history, award criteria, and a biography of the person behind each of the well-known awards is included. Also of interest are lists of the winners in each category, teaching and exploration activities, reproducible teaching aides, and a timeline of events leading up to the establishment of the award. Information about well-known awards is accompanied by information on the lesser known, Pura Belpre, Jane Addams, etc. Information is formatted in quick, easy-to-read tables and charts suitable for classroom duplication. Although some of this information is available online, this is a “one stop” handbook that contains lesser-known awards, and offers activities for enriching the study of each award, whether well-known or not.

Reviews
“For public librarians, the list of award and honour books, although readily found elsewhere, would be helpful for collection development and this information is here conveniently compiled in one source.”—Library Journal, June 15, 2006
