Schneider Family Award Blog Tour

Schneider Family Book Award Seal

Kathie Schneider is a library advocate, retired psychologist from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, author, disability advocate, and dog enthusiast (to name only a few of her attributes!).  We are lucky to have her in our region.  Ten years ago, she used her inheritance to start a new award given yearly by the American Library Association. The Schneider Family Book Award honors an author or illustrator for a book that embodies an artistic expression of the disability experience for child and adolescent audiences.

To celebrate the anniversary of the award, a group of bloggers is sponsoring a blog tour of posts about the award, discussing it in general or highlighting a favorite award-winner.  Take a look at these posts, and you'll maybe find some new blogs to follow, too!
