Newbery Award Titles for Grades 2 and 3

Kids in grades 2 and 3 will love these Newbery Award books. The Newbery Medal is a literary award given by the American Library Association (ALA) for "the most distinguished contribution to American literature for children." Tacoma Public Library hosts an annual movie-making contest called the 90-Second Newbery Film Festival which invites youth to make short films based on the plot of a Newbery winner or honor book. If you enjoy reading these books with your family or classroom, consider adapting them into a movie for the festival. It's fun and rewarding!
