The Rebecca Caudill Program and Abraham Lincoln Program are sponsored by the Association of Illinois School Library Educators (AISLE). They are both Readers' Choice programs, which means that students who read at least 3 of the books by the end of February, are eligible to vote for their favorite.
Carthage Middle School teachers help promote the Rebecca Caudill program, and voting takes place at the Middle School. Home Schooled students should request a ballot at the Library in February. CMS also holds a Battle of the Book Contest each year. Teams compete against each other to answer questions about the books on the list. 5th grade students can also participate in the Bluestem readers choice program. That list is linked below the Rebecca Caudill List on this page.
High School Students! We haven't had many participants in the Abe Lincoln book list the past few years. This year we aim to change that! Encourage your friends to participate. If 10 or more High School Students vote this year in the Abe Lincoln Readers Choice Program there will be a special prize for those participating.
