CILIP Carnegie Award 2020 Titles

The wait is over for the 2020 Carnegie Medal shortlist. Hundreds of nominations have been whittled down to 8 and shadowing groups can begin – all be it slightly differently than usual!
The Carnegie shortlist includes for the first time a translated title in Lampie written and illustrated by Annet Schaap and translated by Laura Watkinson.
Featuring titles that promote “environmentalism, acceptance, kindness and bravery” the 2020 shortlist will offer readers what books have for generations, empathy, ease and escape.
Enjoying these books will enrich the longstanding Carnegie and Greenaway Awards’ mission ‘to inspire and empower the next generation to shape a better world through books and reading’.
