The American Library Association has recently announced their 2016 top book awards.
The Caldecott Medal for the most distinguished American picture book for children was given to Finding Winnie: The True Story of the World’s Most Famous Bear, illustrated by Sophie Blackall. The Newbery Medal for the most outstanding contribution to children’s literature was awarded to Last Stop on Market Street, written by Matt de la Peña. Bone Gap, written by Laura Ruby, was given the Printz Award for excellence in literature written for young adults.
We are pleased that Finding Winnie: The True Story of the World’s Most Famous Bear is already part of our collection. Both Last Stop on Market Street and Bone Gap are available to borrow through the Mid York Library System. We can’t wait for our own copies to arrive in Hamilton soon.
