The Grateful American Book Prize is now accepting submissions for its annual award, recognizing exceptional historical fiction and non-fiction books that captivate young readers.
ARLINGTON, Va. - s4story -- 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."

The annual book prize is awarded for high quality, 7th to 9th grade level historical fiction, fiction, non-fiction, and biographies about important people—and events—in America's History.
The Prize consists of a $13,000 cash award in commemoration of the 13 original Colonies, and a lifetime membership to The New York Historical. In addition, the winner receives a silver medallion designed by Smith's mother, the renowned artist, Clarice Smith. The two "Honorable Mentions" get $500 each and the silver medallion.
