This is a short guide for teachers on how to help a school put in place a reading for pleasure policy. To support this policy the guide also takes a close look at how children read - what do they think as they read? I've also included some plans from teachers putting reading for pleasure policies in place. It's for you to use, adapt and change as you think best for the school and students you have in front of you.

Children's book awards have mushroomed since the early twentieth-century and especially since the 1960s, when literary prizing became a favored strategy for both commercial promotion and canon-making. There are over 300 awards for English-language titles alone, but despite the profound impact of children’s book awards, scholars have paid relatively little attention to them. This book is the first scholarly volume devoted to the analysis of Anglophone children's book awards in historical and cultural context. With attention to both political and aesthetic concerns, the book offers original and diverse scholarship on prizing practices and their consequences in Australia, Canada, and especially the United States. Contributors offer both case studies of particular awards and analysis of broader trends in literary evaluation and elevation, drawing on theoretical work on canonization and cultural capital. Sections interrogate the complex and often unconscious ideological work of prizing, the ongoing tension between formalist awards and so-called identity-based awards — all the more urgent in light of the "We Need Diverse Books" campaign — the ever-morphing forms and parameters of prizing, and scholarly practices of prizing. Among the many awards discussed are the Pura Belpré Medal, the Inky Awards, the Canada Governor General Literary Award, the Printz Award, the Best Animated Feature Oscar, the Phoenix Award, and the John Newbery Medal, giving due attention to prizes for fiction as well as for non-fiction, poetry, and film. This volume will interest scholars in literary and cultural studies, social history, book history, sociology, education, library and information science, and anyone concerned with children's literature.
The purpose of this book is to provide a comprehensive reference source containing information on awards granted in English-speaking countries for excellence in children's literature. Several international awards are also included. Only those international awards that can be given to a book written in English are included. Both current and discontinued awards are listed, providing a total of 144 awards. The book consists of three parts. Part One, Directory of Awards, is arranged alphabetically by award. Each listing contains detailed information concerning the award's purpose and history, as well as the criteria and method of selection. Part Two, Award-Winning Authors and Illustrators, is arranged alphabetically by author and illustrator. All awards received by a single author or illustrator are arranged by the title of the winning book. Part Three, Selected Bibliography, lists books, book chapters, journal articles, dissertations, and reports on topics germane to children's book awards.
