Vote for Favorite Children's Book
Contact: Karen Smith | 610-269-2741

Downingtown Library will be holding a very special election from November 2 through November 7.  The general public is invited to come in and vote for their ultimate favorite among children’s literature.  This unusual election will serve two purposes: to uncover just what Downingtown residents consider their best loved childhood book, and to raise funds for the library. The fund raising aspect of this event is in the way votes are counted -every vote costs a penny! So fill the coin jar for your favorite book, and help your local library.  The people’s choice will be announced on Monday, November 9.

Nominated titles span the 20th century, and include:

Snowy Day by  Ezra Keats Jackson

The Mitten by Jan Brett

Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

Velveteen Rabbit by   Margery Williams

Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak

Good Night Moon by Margaret Wise Brown

Strega Nona by  Tomie De Paola

Green Eggs and Ham by Dr.Seuss

Curious George by H.A. Rey
