Kate Greenaway Medal (Kate Greenaway Medal)

Kate Greenaway Medal

The Kate Greenaway Medal is a British literary award that annually recognises "distinguished illustration in a book for children". It is conferred upon the illustrator by the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals which inherited it from the Library Association. The Medal is named after the 19th-century English illustrator of children's books Kate Greenaway. It was established in 1955 and inaugurated next year for 1955 publications, but no work was considered suitable. The first Medal was awarded in 1957 to Edward Ardizzone for Tim All Alone, which he also wrote. That first Medal was dated 1956. Only since 2007 the Medal is dated by its presentation during the year following publication. The Greenaway is a companion to the Carnegie Medal which recognises one outstanding work of writing for children and young adults. Nominated books must be first published in the U.K. during the preceding school year, with English-language text if any. The award by CILIP is a gold Medal and Â£500 worth of books donated to the illustrator's chosen library. Since 2000 there is also a Â£5000 cash prize from a bequest by the children's book collector Colin Mears.
