CCBC Book Awards 2021 Shortlists
“Congratulations to all of the finalists for the 2021 CCBC Book Awards,” says Rose Vespa, Executive Director of the Canadian Children’s Book Centre. “All of the books nominated were released during an unprecedented year and many were a bright light for young readers as they dealt with uncertainty and fear. This year marks the first-ever Jean Little First-Novel Award and the 15th anniversary of the Marilyn Baillie Picture Book Award. We are thankful to all of our sponsors for their continued support, and for all those who donated and fundraised for the Jean Little First-Novel Award and the Amy Mathers Teen Book Award. Thanks to TD Bank Group, we are able to offer the largest prize in Canadian children’s literature. Our sponsors and donors are essential in making this awards program possible and allowing us to support Canadian artists.” - See more at: https://bookcentre.ca/news/2021-shortlists-ccbc-book-awards#sthash.1C6gI0aT.dpuf
