Margaret Edwards Award
Der Margaret A. Edwards Award (kurz auch: Edwards Award) ist ein Literaturpreis, den die American Library Association (ALA) seit 1988 alljährlich an solche Schriftsteller vergibt, die sich mit einem im Einzelnen genannten Korpus von Buchtiteln um die amerikanische Jugendliteratur in herausragender Weise verdient gemacht haben.
Neben dem ALAN Award ist der Edwards Award der bedeutendste Preis, mit dem Jugendbuchautoren in den Vereinigten Staaten für ihr Lebenswerk ausgezeichnet werden können.
