The Association of Booksellers for Children (ABC) is an American non-profit trade association whose mission is to support the business of independent children's bookselling and the creation of quality children's books.

Information[edit]

The membership of the organization is made up of independent children's booksellers, publishers, authors & illustrators, and other industry professionals. In addition to its advocacy work, the ABC undertakes a number of annual projects on its members' behalf, such a programming at the annual BookExpo America (BEA), the creation of various printed materials on literacy and best books, the dissemination of industry news, maintenance of a proprietary list-serv, an annual book award, The E.B. White Read Aloud Award, and collaborations with other industry trade groups like the Children's Book Council (CBC) and the American Booksellers Association (ABA).[citation needed]

The organisation is mostly funded by publishers.[1] In 2009 it was considering a merger with the American Booksellers Association .[1]
