Dutton Animal Book Award was an American literary award established in 1963 by publisher E. P. Dutton to recognize a previously unpublished work of fiction or non-fiction relating to animals.〔Paul Wasserman, Janice W. McLean. ''Awards, Honors, and Prizes: United States and Canada'', 1978. Pg. 219〕 The reward for the winner was a $7,500 to $15,000 advanced against royalties after publication of the book by Dutton.〔Sylvia K. Burack. ''The writer's handbook'', 1983. Pg. 816〕 The award was inspired by the success of Gavin Maxwell's ''Ring of Bright Water'' (1960), the story of two otters.〔''International literary market place: Volume 2009'', 1980. Pg. 448〕 The award was presented between 1963 and 1969; there was a 6-year hiatus with one more award presented in 1975. ==Winners== *1963: Sterling North, ''Rascal'' *1964: Robert William Murphy, ''The Pond''〔"Robert (William) Murphy."
