Nominated Candidates2017
ASTRID LINDGREN MEMORIAL AWARD 2017
This nomination list contains the names of 226 candidates from 60 countries. The list wouldn’t be possible without the work of over a hundred nominating bodies all over the world. We are deeply grateful for their valuable work in providing us with material and information describing the quality in each and every candidate’s work. This list is a gold mine for anyone interested in international children’s and young adult literature.
One or several laureates from this list will be selected and announced at the National Library in Stockholm on Tues-day April 4, 2017 at 1 pm. The event will be broadcast live to the Bologna Book Fair. So far, sixteen laureates have been rewarded by the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award jury. Meg Rosoff received the award 2016 and highlights from the award ceremony in Stockholm, including her acceptance speech, can be found on www.alma.se/en
The Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award (ALMA) is the world’s largest award for children’s and young adult literature. The award amounts to SEK 5 million and is given annually to a single laureate or to several. Authors, illustrators, oral storytellers and reading promoters are eligible for the award, which is designed to promote interest in children’s and young adult literature. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child is the foundation of our work. An expert jury selects the laureate(s) from candidates nominated by institutions and organisations all over the world. The Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award was founded by the Swedish government in 2002 and is administrated by the Swedish Arts Council. www.alma.se/en
