We just wrapped up reading the Show Me Readers Award nominees in the library! This Missouri book award allows students in grades 1–3 to read 10 nominated books and vote for their favorite.

We talked about how to critique a story—thinking about the characters, illustrations, and what made the book enjoyable. Students then used those discussions to become informed voters when deciding which one was their favorite!

The award winner will be announced at the end of April!
