The 2019 Green Prize for Sustainable Literature is a national book award presented by Santa Monica's Public Library and Office of Sustainability and the Environment.

The Green Prize for Sustainable Literature celebrates the authors, illustrators, photographers and publishers influencing our discussion on sustainability. We honor their remarkable contributions to literature and, if you haven’t already read these incredible books, we hope we’ve inspired you to run out to one of our five Santa Monica Public Libraries and check your copy out today.
