Helpful Hints

When voting by the "Class" or "School" please collect votes in a ballot box. When voting has ended count the total votes for the class and register the total ONCE ONLY. If there is any confusion or you need assistance please contact us and we will answer your questions as soon as possible.

Make sure that you have all contact information properly completed. If we do not have ALL information we cannot contact you to verify and therefore, those votes will not be counted.

Each year we try to improve our voting procedures and increase awareness of American authors and books. If you have suggestions or comments please feel free to send them. We'd be happy to read them and help make this the best children's book award site on the internet!
