Judging is based upon the criteria set forth by our highly selective committee which seeks to honor books promoting character, vision, creativity and learning through content which possesses the key elements found in well-crafted literature (e.g. plot, climax, etc.) in books where such components are applicable.
Our judging committee consists of experts with backgrounds in publishing, writing, editing, design, illustration, and book reviewing.
AWARDS:
Only one Enchanted Page Book Award recipient will be selected annually. Each award winner will receive an Enchanted Page Book Award medal, a signed award certificate with embossed seal, and twenty-five Enchanted Page Book Award seals. Additional award seals will be made available for purchase.
All titles nominated for the award are eligible to be considered for the Literary Classics Seal of Approval. The Seal of Approval is an honor bestowed upon those titles which are of exceptional quality in both content and quality. Seal of Approval Honors are presented throughout the year on an on-going basis. For more information regarding the Literary Classics Seal of Approval program visit our About Page.
