*I just wrapped up my second year on the Charlotte Huck Book Award Committee.
*We announced the winners for the best fiction of the year. The books can include picture and/or novels.
*Here is the "mission" statement for the committee...
Purpose: The NCTE Charlotte Huck Award® for Outstanding Fiction for Children was established in 2014 to promote and recognize excellence in the writing of fiction for children. This award recognizes fiction that has the potential to transform children's lives by inviting compassion, imagination, and wonder.
*The year was filled with powerful picture books and novels. The decision to pick the winners was NOT an easy one.
*The awards luncheon was held on Saturday, November 23 during the #NCTE19 convention in Baltimore.
