Please look to see the 2024-2025 Vermont Golden Dome Book Award Nominees. "The Vermont Golden Dome Book Award was created to honor excellence in children's literature. Since 1957, Vermont students in grades 4 - 8 have selected their favorite book from a list of nominees. It is recommended that students read at least five of their year's nominated before voting in the spring each year" (Vermont Golden; emphasis added).  Each of this year's nominees is featured below; it includes a link to either a read-aloud, summary, or book talk that previews the book. Please take a moment to learn about some of this year's most popular middle school reads.
