He is an award-winning children's author. I created this article because the link from here did not point anywhere: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guardian_Children%27s_Fiction_Prize — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ninebelow (talkcontribs) 16:26, 17 October 2008‎ (UTC)Reply

2012 Carnegie and Greenaway Medals

edit

Today author Ness and illustrator Kay have won the 2012 Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Medals for A Monster Calls, the first such double. (Ness has won the 2011 and 2012 Carnegie Medals, the second such double.)

The Carnegie, Greenaway, and Monster articles have been updated. For more information including six useful news sources see Talk: A Monster Calls#2012 Carnegie and Greenaway Medals. --P64 (talk) 19:28, 14 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Two of those yesterday sources are interviews with Ness and Kay.

Sources

edit

As I depart (one month later) let me note that some of these sources (above/below) are now in the article, some not. Anyway I have barely used some of the sources whose references I have added (Retrieved dates 2012-06/2012-07).

{{Authority control}} in the article footer links LC and other catalog data.

More refs copied from some of our articles on Ness books:

  • "The Knife of Never Letting Go" (review). Frank Cottrell Boyce. The Guardian 13 June 2008. Retrieved 2009-06-02.
  • Pauli, Michelle (23 June 2011). "Patrick Ness accepts Carnegie medal with fierce defence of libraries". The Guardian. Retrieved 25 June 2011.

The Guardian coverage of Patrick Ness index (2000 to date), earliest listing 2003

Today I updated A Monster Calls, but not this biography, to cover that book's winning three more "year's best" awards, beside the Carnegie and Greenaway Medals —namely, British Children's Book of the Year, Red House Children's Book, Kitschies Red Tentacle. Sources for the first two are newspaper articles that may be useful. (Previously it was a finalist for all three, with sources more than a year old.) --P64 (talk) 03:21, 5 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
