California Young Reader Nominees
It is time for the California Young Reader Nominees, and I will be sharing these books with students.
Primary TK -3 will hear the five nominated picture books, and 4-5 will hear Picture Books for Older Readers.
The books are pictured to the right on this page. You may also listen to them again in the tab on the left: Read-Alouds.
We will be voting for our favorites and help in the selection of the award winners!
For additional info, see the CYR website: californiayoungreadermedal.org

Please help your child remember the following rules:
Books should be returned every week, so your child may check out another.
If the book is not returned, they will not be allowed to take another book home.
Books should be kept away from younger children, pets, food and water.
A book should be stored in your child's backpack when they are not reading it. That way, it will be sure to be returned to school.
Books must be treated with special care. Please send a book back to the Library if it is accidentally damaged while it is checked out.
