Awards for our 4th and 5th Graders

Dearborn's 4th and 5th graders have been invited to participate in choosing two award winners this spring. Both the Sasquatch Reading Award and the Young Readers Choice award work the same way. A list of fabulous books is chosen by Washington State librarians in the spring of each year. Students then have the year to read all the titles that interest them. If they read at least two books on the list, the students are invited to vote for the winner.

Here are the lists for each award. Students will vote at the end of March.
