We were in the middle of voting for the 2019-20 Maine Student Book Awards when we unexpectedly found ourselves stuck at home. Although voting for this year has been paused for the moment, the reading goes on!
What is the Maine State Book Award?
Teachers and librarians nominate the books. Kids read, then vote for their favorite story.
Here’s how it works:
- Be in 4th – 8th grades. Current third graders – seventh graders will be eligible to vote on the 2020-21 list.
- Read three or more books from the list.
- Vote at the library (or in school) in April of 2021.
