About The
Josette Frank Award
The Josette Frank Award has been
given annually since 1943. From 1943 to 1997 it was called the "Children's
Book Award." Josette Frank, the editor of many anthologies for children,
served for many years as the Executive Director of the Child Study Association
of America of which this committee was a part. This award for fiction honors a
book or books of outstanding literary merit in which children or young people
deal in a positive and realistic way with difficulties in their world and grow
emotionally and morally.
