Over the Moon: Pharmacy Girl Wins 2019 Moonbeam Silver Medal
I’m happy to announce Pharmacy Girl was awarded a 2019 Moonbeam Children’s Book Award Silver Medal for Pre-teen Historical/Cultural Fiction.
“…[T]he Moonbeam Awards are designed to bring increased recognition to exemplary children’s books and their creators, and help these special books get the attention of booksellers, librarians, parents, and young readers.
…[W]hat does it take to inspire a new generation of readers? It takes children falling in love with books—and it’s up to us as parents, teachers, and publishers to make sure our kids do fall in love—by surrounding them with great books and helping them begin a lifelong love affair with reading.”
