National Book Awards - Young People’s Literature

Christchurch City Libraries lists literary prize winners and links to catalogue searches, but we may not hold copies of all titles mentioned.

The National Book Awards have been awarded every November by the National Book Foundation in the United States since 1950. The Awards were established to enhance the public’s awareness of exceptional books written by Americans, and to increase the popularity of reading in general. The winners, selected by five-member, independent judging panels for each genre, receive a US$10,000 cash award and a crystal sculpture.
