Even though awards and labels were developed with the intention of creating opportunity structures and recognition for many people’s stories, debates continue.
- Who gets to tell whose story?
- Is the award really about literary or illustration quality if the criteria are about race, ethnicity, religion, etc.?
- Do specific awards, based on other criteria, actually create more opportunities for diverse stories or do these awards limit these stories and their creators?
- Is the award for the book, the artistry, or a label?
- Using criteria from the various children’s literature awards, coupled with your understanding of the information provided in the chapter, what is your position on authorial identity, quality, and diverse portrayals?
