# Georgia Children's Book Award reading list

**19** books referenced by Georgia Children's Book Award, a reading-program curriculum framework spanning applicable K-12 grade levels.

The Georgia Children's Book Award, established in 1968 at the University of Georgia's College of Education, is a children's-choice reading program. Each year students across Georgia read from an annual list of nominated middle-grade titles (grades 4-8) and vote for their favorite. The list is refreshed each year, so the titles are Georgia-specific and current.
