Each year ETHS participates in the Lincoln Book Award, an Illinois reading program wherein HS students -- and only HS students -- who read three or more of the nominated books choose a statewide winner. (Here at ETHS you can also earn KitCoin & raffle entries along the way!)
Clicking on each book cover will take you to a summary of that nominee, a book trailer (if we could find one), and information about how/where to access free e-book/audiobook versions.
For more information -- or to check out a physical copy of one of the nominated books -- stop in at East Library or email Ms. Chadwick.
