The Ladybug Picture Book Award, a project of the Center for the Book at the New Hampshire State Library, is designed to promote early literacy and honor the best in recent children's picture books. This year's committee (children's librarians from around New Hampshire) has chosen the 10 nominees for 2012. During Children's Book Week in November, New Hampshire children from preschoolers to those in third grade will vote to select the award winner. Which one is your favorite?
And the nominees are...

Thanks for posting the list. I miss reading the Ladybug books with my kids. Here in CT they have Nutmeg awards instead and they are for chapter books.
