Each January, the American Library Association (ALA) honors books, videos, and other outstanding materials for children and teens.
Selected by committees composed of librarians and other literature and media experts, these awards encourage original and creative work in the field of children’s and young adult literature and media.
Recognized worldwide for the high quality they represent, they guide parents, educators, librarians, and others in selecting the best materials for youth.
