What makes this book program unique is that every book submitted is judged on its own merit. Each book competes only with itself. And since kids assist our industry experts in judging submissions, when a book earns the Story Monsters Approved book designation, it means children are recommending the book for other children to read, too! One deserving title that is outstanding in content, readability, message, and overall production will be selected for the honor of Story Monsters Approved Book of the Year.
