CCA

Children's Choice Awards

For grades 3-6.

The Allegheny Intermediate Unit and the Allegheny County Library Association partner to present the Children's Choice Awards (CCA).

Similar to a mock Newbery program, students in grades 3-6 choose the best book of the year. Students will have until March 30th to read the nominated books and then vote for their favorite.

Read at least four books to earn a chance to enter Bethel Park Public Library's $50 Amazon gift card drawing.
