As part of our preparation for our Read Across America celebration in March, we will be kicking off our fourth annual OPS Picture Book Awards this week. The OPS Picture Book Awards are a school-wide reading event where five nominated picture books published in 2023 are read aloud to all of our students in grades K - 6. After having all five books read aloud to them, our students have an opportunity to judge the books and award three OPS Picture Book Awards for Best Message, Best Illustrations, and Best Overall. The winning book(s) receive an award sticker and are made available (along with the other nominees) to all of our students in the OPS Library. This year's nominees are We Are Starlings by Robert Furrow and Donna Jo Napoli with illustrations by Marc Martin, Evergreen by Matthew Cordell, A Few Beautiful Minutes by Kate Allen Fox with illustrations by Khoa Le, Oh, Olive by Lian Cho, and Bibi by Jo Weaver.
As part of this year's awards, the OPS PTA has been kind enough to run a design contest for each of the three award stickers that will be affixed to the winning book(s). If your OPS student is interested in participating in the design contest, please click here to download an official entry form.
