by 
Elise Broach
For Informational Book-- How Big is it? A Big Book All about Bigness by Ben Hillman
For Poetry-- Oh Theodore! Guinea Pig Poems by Susan Katz
For Young Adult Fiction-- The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
One thing that makes this award especially unique is that the books
are voted on by children from preschool to 18 years of age. Adults on the committee (made up of many librarians and other book lovers) create the nominee list and children in libraries and schools across Utah can vote for their favorites.
