A full range of reading levels is included, with scripts aimed mostly at ages 8–15. The scripts may be freely copied, shared, and performed for any noncommercial purpose, except they may not be posted online without permission.

These scripts are offered primarily for smaller groups such as after-school programs and homeschoolers, as well as for college and professional readers. Reading Enriches Learning - REL home.

Tobias%20Blow. Winners 2011 - CBCA. Award-winning Children's Books and the Major Children's Book Awards. Awards are important in children's books. They tell publishers, writers, and illustrators what is considered to be "the best," and thus the standards they must strive to attain.
Many children's book awards, though not all, are selected by librarians. Award-winners then get orders from libraries around the country. Awards are also important to publishers because books that win these awards will be ordered by bookstores as soon as they are announced, and then prominently displayed with award stickers on their front covers. The most prestigious awards thus not only bestow honors but will gain increased sales from both libraries and bookstores. They will also stay in print longer.
Awards are a significant part of our business. This section provides information about 10 US awards, most of them awarded by the American Library Association. Storyline Online. The Heart of Doodles and Sketches.
