Georgia Picturebook Award
Established in 1968, The Georgia Children's Book Award is presented each year in March. A selection of twenty nominees is announced each year, and students are encouraged to read as many as possible. Students from around the state will vote on their favorite, so the winner is chosen by the kids who read the books!
