A question came up in last year's discussion of the Printz Award that probably couldn't yet be answered. But now that we have a few publishing seasons under our belts with the Printz Award, I thought I'd raise it again:
Does winning the Printz Award effect books sales in the way both the Newbery/Caldecott do? For many years I have heard that Newbery and Caldecott are the only awards that make a huge impact on sales, and I'm just wondering if the Printz Award will have that sort of impact as well?
