Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America has announced the
creation of an emblem for the Andre Norton Award for Best Young Adult Science
Fiction or Fantasy Novel of the Year. The emblem will be used on the covers of
books that win the award, in the tradition of the Newberry and other
distinguished literary awards. Designed by James F. Beveridge,
the emblem features a gryphon, symbolic of Norton's Witch World series,
against a starry background.
The first Andre Norton Award was presented this May to _Valiant_, by Holly
Black (Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing, ISBN: 0689868227.)
