What have teachers and students said about the Red Clover Award Program?

"The best part about the books is exposing students to different genres, multi-age grouping and sharing of books, and connecting books to the outside world."

 


How Are the Nominees Selected Each Year?

The Red Clover Award nominees are selected by a committee comprised of Vermont teachers, librarians and sponsors. The committee reviews all picture books published in the prior year.

The list of nominees is published each March. Here are the book selection criteria:

  • The book must have been published in the prior year.
  • The award is for the entire book-text and illustrations.
  • Both the author and illustrator must be living at the time of the selection.
  • Only one title by the same combination of author and illustrator may be chosen in a given year.
  • The books must be appropriate, in the aggregate, for a range of children in grades K-4.
  • Both fiction and non-fiction are eligible.

 

Are you interested in serving on the Red Clover Award committee? Please send a letter of interest, your resume and two reviews you've written of two recently-published picture books, one positive and one negative to: Mother Goose Programs, 256 Haywood Rd., Chester, VT 05143.
