As reported recently, Dreamygirl’s Field of Wishes/Esonacion y el Jardin de Suenos by Jorge Betancourt Polanco was named a finalist in the Spanish language category of the 2008 Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards. Final judging completed — Dreamygirl won the gold! The Moonbeam Children’s Book Awards are designed to honor the best children’s books, authors and illustrators, and to support childhood literacy and life-long reading. The awards will be presented in January at the American Library Association’s annual conference in Denver, with a gala reception at the venerable Tattered Cover, one of America’s largest independent book retailers. ¡Felicidades Jorge!
