[LM_NET] seeking young heroes; free heroes materials available

[Barbara Ann Richman <ba_richman@BARRONPRIZE.ORG>]

Dear LM_Net list,

The Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes seeks nominations for its 2005
awards. The Barron Prize, founded by young adult author T.A. Barron, honors
young people ages 8 to 18 who have shown leadership and courage in public
service to people and our planet. Each year, ten national winners each
receive $2,000 to support their higher education or their service work.
Nomination deadline is April 30.

The Barron Prize offers librarians and educators a free set of materials to
use in exploring the concept of heroes with their students. Materials
include a heroes curriculum, discussion guide, and bibliography.

To nominate a young hero or to request a free set of the heroes materials,
visit www.barronprize.org.

I'd be more than happy to answer any questions.

Best regards,

Barbara Ann Richman
Program Director
