Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal

The Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal is given by the Association for Library Service to Children, a division of the American Library Association. The first recipient was Wilder herself in 1954, and since then the award has honored an author or illustrator whose books have made a lasting contribution to children’s literature. All winning books must be published in the U.S. One past winner who lives on in all of our hearts: Theodor S. Geisel, or Dr. Seuss.
