The SLA Information Book Award is one of several book awards in the UK which celebrate non-fiction books for children and young people. In a brilliant development, this year FCBG book groups can get involved in the voting process – providing an opportunity to create an exciting and different sort of group event.
The books shortlisted for the award are:
Under 7s
7-12
12-16
Choose a category, read the books (you’ll need to source the books through your public or school library) and then vote for your favourite here http://www.sla.org.uk/iba-vote.php filling in the name of your FCBG group and your chair in the boxes that ask for school details.
Free posters are available to download here [http://www.sla.org.uk/information-book-award.php – scroll to the bottom to find the link], and activity sheets will be available early in September.
Voting is already open and closes on 18th September. The winner will be announced on September 30th at a free award ceremony at Bath Children’s Literature Festival [http://bathfestivals.org.uk/childrens-literature/event/sla-information-book-award/].
