Dear Friends --

It is my pleasure to share that Linda Glaser and Adam Gustavson, author and illustrator of Hannah’s Way, Louise Borden, author of His Name Was Raoul Wallenberg, and Deborah Heiligman, authorof Intentions, are the 2013 winners of the prestigious Sydney Taylor Book Award. The Sydney Taylor Book Award is presented annually to outstanding books for children and teens that authentically portray the Jewish experience. The award memorializes Sydney Taylor, author of the classic All-of-a-Kind Family series. The winners will receive their awards at the Association of Jewish Libraries Conference in Houston, Texas this June.

The winners were formally announced yesterday at the Association of Jewish Libraries midwinter meeting in New York.

Twenty outstanding books were selected from the nearly 100 titles evaluated by the SydneyTaylor Book Award Committee during 2012. The Committee recommends them for library, classroom, and home use.
