Ladybug Picture Book Nominees

Yesterday a committee of children's librarians from around New Hampshire announced the 10 nominees for the Ladybug Picture Book Award. Designed to promote early literacy and honor the best in recent children's picture books, preschoolers through third graders will vote in the fall for their favorite book. Look for these books in the Children's Room at the Conway Public Library.
