Blueberry Awards Info

Welcome to the Blueberry Awards, an annual nature & climate award for kids' literature 3 - 10+ which will help you reach students and patrons with the best eco-literature for kids!

You can use the Blueberry Awards lists every year to:
  • Create wonderful Earth Month displays, storytimes and community collaborations!
  • Recommend books to students and patrons lookingfor good information about our earth, handled sensitively that won't lead to climate anxiety
  • Create outdoor book walks
  • Invite authors or illustrators for author visits
  • Join in on our Blueberry Votes Program! (K-2 kids vote on an abbreviated list of prospective Blueberry Award winners; report the winning title into the Blueberry Committee! (we will take your kids' votes into account in our final selections!)
