Re: Book awards for writers grades 1-12

I have ordered all of the Landmark book.  They are very popular with my
6, 7 and 8th graders.  I was afraid at first they would think they were
baby books because of the format.  They are large and look like picture
books. Originally I ordered only the ones written by the older kids.  After
I saw how much the kids liked them, I ordered the ones written by the
younger kids.  These are popular too.  I shelve them with the regular
fiction, except for one that is a biography.  The kids go up and down the
shelves looking for them, and they are always checked out.  I would
recommend these books.
