The American Library Association announced the award of the Newberry Medal to Erin Entrada Kelly for her contribution to children's literature for Hello, Universe, and the Caldecott Medal to Matthew Cordell for Wolf in the Snow, for the most distinguished American picture book for children.

Hello, Universe is illustrated by Isabel Roxas.

National Public Radio's essay by Colin Dwyer includes links to the video of the awards ceremony, a listing of all the awards, and some of the paintings from Cordell's book.

Take a look.
