[Steppes] Ministry of Children

Here's a thought.  What do you think about, "Great oaks from little acorns
grow." - Chaucer (c.1343-1400) Since we do have the "Acorn" as an award, I'm
not sure how this one would do, but it really sounds nice.  :)

“Of course I know how to work it,” said Lupin, waving his hand impatiently, “I helped write it.  I’m ‘Mooney’ – that was my friends’ nickname for me.” (p.254)... “... And that’s how we came to write the Marauder’s Map, and sign it with our nicknames.  Sirius is ‘Padfoot.’  Peter is ‘Wormtail.’  James was ‘Prongs.’ ”  (p. 260)  Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.  J.K. Rowling.  Bloomsbury Publishing, London (1999).
