Carnegie and Greenaway shortlists

The shortlists for the U.K.'s Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Medals have been announced (Michelle Pauli reports for the Guardian. Link via Michele at Scholar's Blog.)

I've done some linking for y'all and some research as to U.S. publication. All but one of the picture books have also been published in the U.S. (and the eighth is forthcoming in August), while only two of the Carnegie novels will be published here in the near future.

Carnegie Medal

• Jan Mark, Turbulence
• Geraldine McCaughrean, The White Darkness
• David Almond, Clay (out July 26, 2006 in the U.S.)
• Frank Cottrell Boyce, Framed (out September 1, 2006 in the U.S.)
• Mal Peet, Tamar

Kate Greenaway Medal

• Mini Grey, Traction Man is Here! (already published in the U.S.)
• Oliver Jeffers, Lost and Found (published December 29, 2005 in the U.S.)
• Dave McKean, Mirrormask (published in September 2005 in the U.S.)
