We are pleased to announce that Joanne Rocklin's ONE DAY
AND ONE AMAZING MORNING ON ORANGE STREET is this year's Focal Award winner.
The Focal Award is presented annually to children's books
that enrich a child’s knowledge and understanding of California and its
history.
The award committee, which typically consists of
teachers, librarians, booksellers, writers and others who focus on children's
literature, generally choose winners from books published within the past five
years. Each year's winning title must also be of the highest literary and
artistic quality.
Please join us in congratulating Joanne, who in January
will receive her award -- an original handmade puppet created by FOCAL member
of a character in ONE DAY AND ONE AMAZING MORNING ON ORANGE STREET.
The puppet sounds amazing--can't wait to hear which character and see a picture!
