Dear Mr. Korman,

I'm the librarian At Milton Pope School in Marseilles, IL. Our Jr. High has book reports due every month. The first two months the books have to be award winning books. I'm trying to look on the internet on a list of your books that are award winning and I'm having no luck. If you can help me with this I really appreciate it. They really love your books and would like to read some of your for the reports.

Thank you,

Mrs. Gerding

Hi, Mrs. Gerding,

Some of the award winners are as follows:

LINKED -- Sydney Taylor Honor (ALA); National Jewish Book Award; Cybil Award; Red Maple Honor (OLA).

SCHOOLED -- multiple State Reading Assoc. Awards and nominations

MASTERMINDS series (3) -- Silver Birch Award (OLA); Arthur Ellis Award.

THE UNTEACHABLES -- The Horace Mann Upstanding Award

WAR STORIES -- Vine Award

UNGIFTED -- ORCA Award

RESTART -- at least 20 State Reading Assoc. awards, including the California Young Readers Medal.

The newest, UNPLUGGED, NOTORIOUS, OPERATION DO-OVER, and THE FORT (Book #100 on my list) have several nominations, but their year isn't quite over yet.

Hope that's helpful. It's a partial list, plus my earlier work has several Body of Work Awards.

Regards, -----Gordon Korman-----
