Building Literacy One Block at a Time

November 27, 2012

Every year the Youth Services division of the Missouri Library Association votes on the best books for preschool aged children. Only 10 books have the honor of being nominated for the Building Block Award, and only one of those titles can hold the top spot! The winner is determined by the children who come in to cast their ballots!

Voting starts in September and ends on December 31st, so you've still got time to bring your child in to vote for his or her favorite nominee! If you'd prefer, you can also cast your ballot online.

And now, without further ado, the nominees are:

• Mitchell's License by Hallie Durand
• Rrralph by Lois Ehlert
• I Spy with My Little Eye by Edward Gibbs
• The Wonderful Book by Leonid Gore
• Dog in Boots by Greg Gormley
• Hugless Douglas by David Melling
• If You're Hoppy by April Pulley Sayre
• Do You Know Which Ones Will Grow by Susan A. Shea
• Is Everyone Ready for Fun? by Jan Thomas
• Press Here by Herve Tullet

Who will you vote for?
