Is this misleading and even wrong?

Asked by joeschmo (1396points) March 20th, 2019

A link in a post here sent me to a book. It boasted its awards thus:

2011 Lane Anderson Book Award, Fitzhenry Family Foundation (Winner)
2011 Norma Fleck Award, Canadian Children’s Book Centre (Short-Listed finalist)
2011 Silver Birch Award, Ontario Library Association (Short-Listed finalist)
2011 Best Books for Kids & Teens, Canadian Children’s Book Centre (Starred Selection)

When you glance at the list quickly, you might think the book had won 4 awards. Actually, it won but one of them.

It may be a great book. It is an honour to be nominated…

But this is misleading imho.

Thoughts?

Thank you.
