Updated bibliographical comparison table for Mr. Zhang Zizhang’s Newbery Medal Juvenile Fiction Lectures

   
This morn­ing at Qifa, I lis­tened to Mr. Zhang Zizhang from Tai­wan give a lec­ture on juve­nile fic­tion, focus­ing on New­bery Medal-win­ning works. It was quite enjoy­able. He men­tioned many titles, and the Tai­wanese and main­land Chi­nese ver­sions dif­fered con­sid­er­ably. After the lec­ture, I dis­cussed a list of Tai­wanese titles men­tioned, searched for the main­land Chi­nese trans­la­tions, and com­pared them with the orig­i­nal Eng­lish titles. The fol­low­ing is a com­par­i­son. Some titles are miss­ing, or I just could­n’t find them. If there are any omis­sions, please feel free to help fill them in. (Argen­tine Primera División com­piled on Sep­tem­ber 24, 2013, updat­ed on Novem­ber 27, 2020)
