The Prize for Young Adult Fiction

This prize is offered for a published work of fiction or collection of short stories written for a readership between the ages of 13 and 18. Publishers may consider submitting books that are appropriate to young adult readers but not published under a young adult imprint.

Literary merit is the major judging criterion. In the case of illustrated books, the additional criterion of literary and artistic unity is considered.
