Bluefish, a young adult novel by Wisconsin’s own Pat Schmatz, is winner of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators 2012 Crystal Kite Award for the Midwest Division. This is an especially gratifying award as it is voted on by authors’ peers.
This continues Pat’s award-winning role. Her book, Mousetraps, was a previous winner of CWW’s Tofte/Wright Children’s Literature Award.
Congratulations, Pat!
