To celebrate the 40th anniversary of E.L. Konigsburgs 1967 win of the Newbery Medal and Newbery Honor--a feat never before repeated by any author--Aladdin Paperbacks is reissuing the entire Konigsburg oeuvre throughout 2007, including some long out-of-print titles, in luxurious, deluxe trade paperback editions.

E.L. Konigsburg is the only author to have won the Newbery Medal and a Newbery Honor in the same year. In 1968, From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler won the Newbery Medal and Jennifer, Hecate, Macbeth, William McKinley, and Me, Elizabeth was named a Newbery Honor Book. Almost thirty years later she won the Newbery Medal once again for The View from Saturday. Among her other acclaimed books are Silent to the Bone, The Outcasts of 19 Schuyler Place, and The Mysterious Edge of the Heroic World.
