1:06pm: 2006 Karen Sue Simonetti Cover Art Award
The KSSCAA is an ADBOOKS Award in Conjunction with the JHUNT AWARD for Young Adult Books, and it was created to honor the memory and spirit of former ADBOOKS member Karen Sue Simonetti. As a member of ADBOOKS, I was able to vote for this award, and I could not be happier about the result.

This year's winning cover is the Australian version of The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. To see the winning cover, and the other covers that were nominated, point your browser to http://nonesuch.flyingredslippers.org/kls/cover2006.html. And, of course, feel free to read the much-praised book as well!

Happy Reading!
