Finding Children's Books

The Database of Award-Winning Children's Literature (DAWCL) boasts an easily-searchable database on award-winning children's literature from the United States, England, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada.

A useful resource for anyone looking for children's books and literature, DAWCL can be particularly useful for child development schools, child-care centers, and nanny schools that are looking to build their own library of children's books.

The database contains more than 7,477 entries of award-winning children's books. You can search according to such different criteria as:

  • Suggested age of the child reader
  • Format
  • Genre
  • Historical period
  • Gender of the protagonist
  • Publication year
  • Language
  • Awards won

The website also has information on more than 84 children's literature awards.
