CILIP Greenaway Award 2020 Titles

8 titles have made it onto the 2020 Kate Greenaway Medal shortlist. This year’s list personifies the diversity it promotes with both debut illustrators and a previous winner and features titles from a wide range of publishing houses.
The Greenaway shortlist includes “stories that champion the importance of community, friendships and family bonds in overcoming challenging moments” more relevant now than perhaps the judges might have known.
One of these is The Suitcase – written and illustrated by Chris Naylor-Ballesteros – a story about friendship and the importance of showing kindness to those in need.
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’.
