The Kansas Authors Club Children’s Book Award was created in 2018 to honor the best book written with an audience of children in mind. The Children’s Book Award is sponsored in memory of Craig Grant. Craig was a champion of public education. He believed reading is basic to sharing our thoughts and feelings; understanding and accepting our differences and sameness; and helping us to learn about our world.
