I am very proud and honored to announce that Azalea, Unschooled has been selected as a gold medal winner for the 2015 Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards. According to Independent Publisher:

The Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards are intended to bring increased recognition to exemplary children’s books and their creators, and to celebrate children’s books and life-long reading.

Many of our award-winning books encourage children to be generous and compassionate, to stand up to bullies, and to believe in fulfilling their dreams. The diversity of the winning publishers proves that promoting childhood literacy knows no boundaries, as medal-winners came not only from long-established publishers and university presses, but from small presses, foundations, and self-published entrepreneurs.

Thanks to Islandport Press for being so supportive (and for finding illustrator Brook Gideon!). This was a group effort and I am grateful to everyone who is part of Team Azalea!
