WINNER
Bronze Moonbeam Award for Best First Book/Picture Book
The Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards bring increased recognition to exemplary children’s books and their creators, and are dedicated to supporting childhood literacy and life-long reading, worldwide since 2006. As our society has gotten more complex and growing up has become more complicated, children’s book authors and publishers have risen to the occasion, creating books that not only celebrate the joys of childhood, but also help kids and families deal with its challenges. The Moonbeam Awards recognize and reward the best of these books and bring them to the attention of booksellers, librarians, parents, and children. Many of our award-winning books encourage children to be generous and compassionate, stand up to bullies, and believe in fulfilling their dreams. The diversity of the winning publishers proves that promoting childhood literacy knows no boundaries, as medal-winners came not only from mainstream, long-established publishers and university presses, but from small presses, foundations, and self-published authors.
