New Mexico – Arizona Book Awards

20 Comments

On Friday my May-girl earned herself a shiny sticker as the juvenile division winner of the New Mexico – Arizona Book Awards!
I sat with Vaunda Nelson, author of NO CRYSTAL STAIR, this year’s Hornbook/Boston Globe winner. Vaunda won NM – AZ’s young adult award as well as best book overall. If you don’t know Vaunda’s work, get thee to a library or bookstore. She is a talent and a lovely person all around.

When the dress code is described as “New Mexico casual,” it’s a guarantee there will be lots of great turquoise — belts, earrings, bracelets, necklaces, rings, bolo ties. And what would a southwestern literary award be without books on our staple vegetable, chile?

Thank you to the New Mexico Co-op for a wonderful evening and for including May B. on your list of winners.
