On January 20, 2012, the
United States Board on Books for Young People (
USBBY) announced its annual list of
Outstanding International Books. The U.S. division of IBBY selects books for children originating or first published outside of the U.S. As such, Canadian books would be eligible for inclusion on this honour list.
This list, also announced at the American Library Association conference, is published in School Library Journal and in a bookmark format. The bookmark displayed below is available for download from
the USBBY website.
Canadian titles have been highlighted in yellow. The ten titles indicated below were published by
Annick,
Groundwood or
Kids Can Press.
Constance Vidor and Ragina Shearer prepared a
Google Map displaying all honour books on this list, as a useful tool for teaching.
