About the Author:
For more than eight decades, librarians from the Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC) have intensely scrutinized the children's books published each year, selecting the winning and honor books for the Newbery and Caldecott Awards. In addition, the ALSC division of the ALA is committed to creating a nation of readers, starting with the youngest. ALSC supports all those providing library services to children, including youth librarians, teachers, families, literature experts, publishers, and child advocates.
Review:
"A recommended pick beyond the juvenile collection."
"A superb and easy-to-use reference especially recommended for librarians."
"Informative and provocative; the annotated entries for each of the award wining titles make fascinating reading."
