This year's books include selections suitable for preschool readers all the way through adults. The titles are \"Say Hello!\" by Rachel Isadora (preschool); \"The Sandwich Swap\" by Kelly DiPucchio and Queen Rania of Jordan (grades K-4); \"Extra Credit\" by Andrew Clements (grades 3-5); \"A Long Walk to Water\" by Linda Sue Park (middle school); and \"Girl In Translation\" by Jean Kwok (teens and adults).
