Newbery Medal

(Redirected from Newbery Honor)

The John Newbery Medal is a literary award of the American Library Association (ALA).

The medal is given to writers of books for children.

History

The Newbery Medal has been given since 1922. It was the first children's literary award in the world. It is named for John Newbery, an 18th century English publisher of books for children.[1]

Since 1971, there has also been the "Newbery Honor". Each year, one or more books are named "Newbery Honor books". Some books from before 1971 were also named Newbery Honor books.[2]
