The astonishingly beautiful children’s book, Loon, which SONSi member Karen Reczuch illustrated, continues to rack up awards. We blogged about its success at the Ruth and Sylvia Schwartz Children’s Book Awards earlier this year. Now, as the year comes to a close, we would like to congratulate Karen on a triumphant success for Loon:
- The Norma Fleck Award for Canadian Children’s Non Fiction
- The Children’s Literature Roundtable Information Book Award
- A USSBY Outstanding International Book
- A Canadian Children’s Book Centre Best Books 2012
- and short-listed for the Shining Willow Award and The Silver Birch Express Reading Program
