JadeHave you won any awards/accolades? If so, where can I see? I know you're a NYT Bestselling author for a couple books, but what else have you gotten? Is there any way to check?
Be blessed,

Good to hear from you.
If it's Newberrys your looking for, I got zero. But if it's Children's Choice Awards and State Reading Associations, I'm golden. I must have hundreds of those, and they mean a lot to me.
Over a 40+ year career, the first was The Air Canada Award for a Canadian author under 35 (I was young once!)
I'm the proud owner of a Silver Birch Award (Ontario Library Assoc.), a Sydney Taylor Honor, and an award for WHATSHISFACE from The International Literacy Association. I think all those are Kids' Choices too.
Try Googling Author Gordon Korman - Awards.
And now that I've blown my own horn to a disgraceful degree, I'll say goodnight. Hey, thanks for asking. It was nice to go over all those years of "hearing" applause from my readers! ---G---

Yeah, I was just wondering, really. The Forum sure knows you're awesome, but does the rest of the world know too? I'm totally looking that up!
Of course you got an award for WHATSHISFACE. It was amazing!
