About the Children's Choice Book Awards widget

The Children's Choice Book Awards program was created to provide young readers with an opportunity to voice their opinions about the books being written for them and to help develop a reading list that will motivate children to read. Children will be able to cast their vote for their favorite books, author, and illustrator at bookstores, school libraries, and at http://www.bookweekonline.com until Sunday, May 4, 2008. 10,000 children in five teams from around the US spent months reading and evaluating books submitted by publishers. They looked at hundreds of titles. The five favorite books published in 2007 in each of these categories are open for a nation-wide vote in March and April 2008 in each of three grade categories: K-2, 3-4, 5-6 as well as Favorite Author, and Favorite Illustrator. The winner in each category will be named at a gala during Children's Book Week on May 13th, 2008 in New York City.
