Youth Media Award winners in SRCSA library

Books arranged, front-covers up, on counter-top. They include: 'Silent Days, Silent Dreams' by Allen Say, 'Out of Wonder' by Kwame Alexander, et. al., 'All Around Us' by Xelena Gonzalez, 'Crown: An Ode to the Fresh Cut' by Derrick Barnes, 'Wolf in the Snow' by Matthew Cordell, 'Charlie & Mouse' by Laurel Snyder, 'The 57 Bus' by Dashka Slater, 'The Epic Fail of Arturo Zamora' by Pablo Cartaya, 'The First Rule of Punk' by Celia C. Pérez, 'Piecing Me Together' by Renee Watson, 'Hello, Universe' by Erin Entrada Kelly, and 'You're Welcome, Universe' by Whitney Gardner

A definite highlight to this past week at Santa Rosa Charter School for the Arts, was the arrival of books honored among the best of children’s literature by the American Library Association’s Youth Media Awards. I await with interest early each year as the awards are announced, but how much more exciting to be able to read some of these books for myself, and to know that my library customers will be able to enjoy them too. Appreciation to the School for the Arts Community Organization, for purchasing these wonderful new arrivals.
