Aram’s Choice has been nominated for the Silver Birch Award!
Here’s a blurb about the reading program:
The Ontario Library Association Silver Birch Award™ reading program, now in its fourteenth year, is created and promoted to students and readers ages 8 to 11 in Grades 3 to 6. The number of participants over the last few years has been outstanding. Last year, over 200,000 students in 1000+ school and public libraries across Ontario participated in the Forest of Reading Award® Programs.

Way to go, Marsha! Fingers crossed for the results. By the way, I’ve just loaded this blog and your Kobzar blog into my new Google reader — that way every time you post, I’ll get to see it!

Re: Awesome News!
Thanks, karen! I’m really thrilled. And you know, it probably sounds silly to say this, but I don’t really care who wins. For this whole school year, kids will be reading a bunch of new books and debating amongst themselves about which one they like best. Had there been a program like that when I was a kid, I wouldn’t have opted out of reading til I was 9.
And tell me about this new google reader. I don’t see it on my google page.
