As far as I could conclude from my research on the 2019 Oscars, the nominees listed below are the movies that have a connection to books/comic books for children or young adults. (I should mention, I've only had the chance to see three of the films: Mary Poppins Returns, A Wrinkle in Time, and Black Panther - I loved them all!)
Mary Poppins Returns was nominated for three Academy Awards: Best Original Score; Best Original Song; and Best Costume Design.

Christopher Robin was nominated for one Academy Award: Best Visual Effects.
* * *
A Wrinkle in Time was nominated for one Academy Award: Best Costume Design.

* * *
Ready Player One was nominated for one Academy Award: Best Visual Effects.
* * *
Avengers - Infinity War was nominated for one Academy Award: Best Visual Effects.
* * *
Last, but not least, is Black Panther. This extraordinary movie was nominated for seven Academy Awards! Best Picture; Best Costume Design; Best Sound Editing; Best Sound Mixing; Best Original Score; Best Original Song; and Best Production Design.

(If I missed any books for children/young adults that are connected to a nomination #booktofilm, my apologies to those authors & producers.)
Wishing each of these feature films much luck this Sunday night at the Oscars! Congratulations to all the nominees!
