Reading the list of ALA awardees other than Neil Gaiman and love this little bit:
Coretta Scott King Book Award recognizing an African American author and illustrator of outstanding books for children and young adults. “We Are the Ship: The Story of the Negro League Baseball,” .....
Three King Author Honor Books ere selected: “The Blacker the Berry” by Joyce Carol Thomas, illustrated by Floyd Cooper and published by Amistad, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers....
I totally read that as King Arthur Honor Books and was impossibly excited that there was a yearly award for best Arthurian children's lit.
Well, there still should be.
Full list here: http://www.ala.org/ala/newspresscenter/n
Includes video of the trials of trying to get in contact with authors and illustrators, Neil and Terry Pratchett's reactions to their awards. Fun stuff.
