Read & Review

The ALA Youth awards have been announced for this year, but that doesn’t mean the fun of reading and reviewing books needs to be over!

In fact, as we head into 2011, we’d really like to hear what you think of the youth books you are reading, and on occasion (and with your permission) we’d like to share your thoughts with others through this blog. So, if you’d care to share your thoughts with us, here are the details:

• Every time you review a book, you’ll be eligible to enter our raffle for an Amazon or iTunes gift card! The raffle drawing will take place at the end of the Youth Winter Reading Program.
• Both children and adults can participate.
• Youth materials that may be reviewed include: early readers, beginning chapter books, youth chapter books, youth non-fiction books, and picture books with a purpose.
• You may submit multiple reviews but only one per book.

To share your thoughts online through February 27th, visit the following link to review picture books with a purpose: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/picbookreviewsbyyou

Use this link through February 27th to review all other youth materials: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/bookreviewsbyyou

We hope to hear from YOU
