Canadian Children's Book Awards

Monday September 15, 2003
I just finished updating the Canadian section of my Major Children's Book Awards directory. There are now more than a half dozen listed. What inspired me to work on it was the announcement from Kraft Foods of the 2003 golden seal winners of the Mr. Christie's Book Award. They are author Anne Laurel Carter and illustrators Alan and Lea Daniel for Under a Prairie Sky, author Alan Cumyn for The Secret Life of Owen Skye and author Joan Clark for The Word for Home.

If there are other Canadian children's book awards I should add to my directory, please post the information on the About Children's Books Forum. I'd also like to know who your favorite Canadian children's authors are. Thanks.recall recall
