2008-2009 Book Award Winners

Picture Book Award - Hero Cat by Eileen Spinelli. 
Children's Book Award - How to Steal a Dog by Barbara O'Connor. 
Junior Book Award - Cracker!: the Best Dog in Vietnam by Cynthia Kadohata. 
Young Adult Book Award - New Moon by Stephenie Meyer

The Book Award Committees are made up of a cross section of media specialists, teachers, students, parents, administrators, public librarians, and college or university representatives. These individuals commit themselves for three years during which time they annually formulate the SCASL Book Award Program book lists. In order to accomplish this they must each read 100-250 titles each year which are then discussed and evaluated at regular meetings. It is their efforts which afford you each year's carefully selected reading list in each category: picture books, children, junior, and young adult. Media specialists, teachers, and students owe them a big vote of thanks!
