White Ravens List – James Foley

This is completely unexpected and wonderful news!

The White Ravens List is a prestigious international children’s book honour given to a select number of books each year.

From the official website:

Throughout each year, the language specialists at the International Youth Library select recently published books that they consider especially noteworthy. This >>premium label<< is given to books of international interest that deserve a wider reception on account of their universal theme and/or their exceptional and often innovative artistic and literary style and design.

This year, the >>White Ravens<< contain a selection of 200 notable children’s and young adult books from 53 countries published in 37 languages.
