A very good week…

 

Not Suitable for Family Viewing has done all right by itself lately.

Last week at the Ontario Library Association Superconference in Toronto, it was one of ten novels chosen  as a 2009 OLA Best Bets for Young Adult Readers.

Today, it was nominated for the 2010 Snow Willow Awards in Saskatchewan.

The Snow Willow is  given through the Saskatchewan Young Readers’ Choice Award program (SYRCA), which promotes reading among the province’s children and youth.  Ten books written by Canadian authors and aimed at kids in grades 7 to 9 are nominated. Any student who has read the minimum number of books can vote for their favourite. The winning book will receive the Snow Willow award next Spring.
