We believe you, SJP!

We all know reading is not a competition. But just as people are questioning whether Sarah Jessica Parker is really reading two books a day as a Booker Prize judge, I am reminded to say: THANK YOU Boston Globe–Horn Book Awards Committee! (Photos below courtesy of Julie Hakim Azzam.)

This year's committee members are: Julie Hakim Azzam, Hill Saxton, and Susannah Richards (chair). 

Information about BGHB 2025 Awards Announcement coming soon!
