Each year, hundreds of booksellers across the South vote on their favorite "handsell" books of the year. These are the "southern" books they have most enjoyed selling to customers; the ones that they couldn't stop talking about. The SIBA (Southern Independent Booksellers Alliance) Book Award was created to recognize great books of southern origin.
The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore has been selected by these booksellers as the Children's Winner. It's an incredible honor to be chosen by these independent booksellers.
