The Grand Canyon Reader Award is a reader award program for students in Arizona. Students vote annually on their favorite book in the following categories: Picture, Non-Fiction, Intermediate, Tween and Teen. One of my favorite writers, Gordon Korman was a double category winner in 2010 so I feel quite humbled to be nominated.
A big thank you to all the Arizona students who read and nominated the book.
Here is a list of the wonderful books nominated in my category:
11 Birthdays by Wendy Mass (2009)
