The Campaign for America's Libraries

The top books, video and audiobooks for children and young adults – including the Caldecott, Coretta Scott King, Newbery, Printz and Morris awards – were announced early Monday morning at ALA's annual Youth Media Awards ceremony.

Many of the winners are posting their reaction to receiving the prestigious honor on the YMA YouTube Channel. 

Ruta Sepetys, a Morris finalist for Between Shades of Grey,
speaks about the power of books and the power of librarians in her remarks.
