As a book reviewer, I get all sorts of publicity materials along with the review copies of books. I smiled when I received Kit's Wilderness, by David Almond, the author of Skellig. In large letters, in the first page of the review packet were the words, By the Printz Award winning writer... (or words to that effect) So the publishers are certainly respecting and promoting the award and the books awarded. I too would like to know if there has been any noticeable impact on sales since the announcement of the award. Robin Smith
