The first and most enduring award for GLBT books is the Stonewall Book Awards, sponsored by the American Library Association’s Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Round Table. Since Isabel Miller’s Patience and Sarah received the first award in 1971, many other books have been honored for exceptional merit relating to the transgender/ bisexual/ gay/ lesbian/experience.

This year I’ll Give You The Sun by Jandy Nelson, A TRCA Top Ten title, was named a Stonewall Honor Books for Children’s and Young Adult Literature.
