About the Grateful American Book Prize
More on S For Story
David Bruce Smith's Grateful American Foundation was founded on President's Day 2014, with a mission to restore enthusiasm in American history for kids—and adults. The organization seeks to provide interest, insight, and to increase awareness about the people and events that influenced the founding of the United States. Smith has boundless enthusiasm for American History and a limitless longing to share it with America's schoolchildren. So, it's no wonder that the author and publisher co-created the Grateful American Book Prize the following year.
The Grateful American Book Prize was co-founded by David Bruce Smith and Dr. Bruce Cole, the former chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities, in 2015. It is awarded annually to the authors of books for children, ages 11 to 15; they can be works of historical fiction, fiction, non-fiction, and biographies. "We are looking for excellence in writing and storytelling."
