Rush Limbaugh Wins Child 'Author Of The Year' Award

Rush Limbaugh won the "Author of the Year Award" at the Children's Choice Book Awards for his book Rush Revere and The Brave Pilgrims: Time-Travel Adventures with Exceptional Americans, in which Rush Revere and a talking horse named Liberty travel back in time to visit the pilgrims.

Although the book has never been a critical favorite, according to NPR, it has been an enormous commercial success.

Four finalists for the award were chosen because of their places on bestseller lists, and the winner was chosen by children's votes.

In accepting the honor, Limbaugh said, "I love America. I wish everybody did. I hope everybody will. It's one of the most fascinating stories in human history...and it's a delight and it's an opportunity to try to share that story with young people so they can grow and learn to love and appreciate the country in which they're growing up and will someday run and lead and inherit."
