The winners of the CILIP Carnegie & Greenaway Medals have been announced. The Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Medals are the UK’s oldest children’s book awards. They recognize “outstanding reading experiences created through writing and illustration in books for children and young people.” The Shadowers’ Choice Awards are voted on by young people who vote for their favorite books.

It looks like I also never shared the shortlists for these awards, so I will include them here as well.
