 BLUEBONNETS!

 

January 4th will be the first day of voting for the twenty books nominated for the 2020 Texas Library Association Bluebonnet Award.  While the twenty nominees are selected by a committee of librarians, students in 3rd - 6th grade are the ones that vote to choose the one book out of the twenty to receive the Award.  

Voting will end on February 15th. Normally it ends on January 31st but to ensure that kids have access to the books, voting is extended two weeks. Quarantine has impacted book availability. Each voter should read at least five books from the list before they vote.  And without further ado - these are the nominees for 2020-2021!

 

 

I have read sixteen of the twenty and plan to discuss them over the next six weeks. I think New Kid has a good chance of winning.  But time will tell. The twenty books for next year have already been selected and announced so after the 2020 book is announced, I will talk about the new round of books.

Have you read any of these? Did you have a favorite?
