Being the President of AJL has many perks, but I never thought that one of them would be to announce the Sydney Taylor Award and Honor winners at the American Library Association's Youth Media Awards. Nor did I ever dream that I would have the joy of announcing the name of my former SSCPL VP, Past Sydney Taylor Chair, and dear friend, Susan Kusel, as the WINNER of the Picture Book Award. I am so happy that this wonderful book won. I hope it will grace the shelves of Jewish and secular libraries for years to come as the "go to" Passover Book.
Kol HaKavod, Susan! And Kol HaKavod to the Sydney Taylor Awards Committee for all their exceptional choices. We are all so very proud of this year's list. Kathy B.
