Maine Student Book Award 2023-2024 Reading List

The Maine Student Book Award is designed to expand literary horizons of students in grades 4-8 by encouraging them to read, evaluate, and enjoy a selection of new books and to choose a statewide favorite by written ballot each spring. 

In the decades since the Maine Student Book Award was initiated, more and more students across Maine have expanded their reading horizons.

The award is determined each year by participating Maine students in grades four through eight. The winning book is selected from a reading list that is compiled by the MSBA committee. Any interested readers - student, teacher, parent, librarian - may submit a book review for the committee's consideration for any fiction or nonfiction title published in the current year.

For more information visit the Maine Student Book Award's website.
