Each year the Young Adult Reading Program (YARP) Committee of the South Dakota Library Association publishes a list to promote quality literature and to help South Dakota teachers and librarians in selecting and promoting books for adolescents. The books are selected from among the many young adult and adult books that have received positive reviews by national reviewing periodicals.
For the first time since 1989, teens voted on the titles from the current 2007 list and awarded their favorite book for the SD Teen Choice Award. SD YARP Teen Reads Committee is proud to announce for the Middle School category, Copper Sun by Sharon Draper and Fake ID by Walter Sorrells for the High School category as the winners of the 2008 SD Teen Choice Awards.
The SD YARP Teen Reads Committee will announce the winners of the SD Teen Choice Awards each year during National Library Week. There will be a winner for Middle and High School levels. The 2008 list will be released in September and voting will take place until March 31, 2009.
