Middle School Nutmeg Books

Every year librarians and teachers from Connecticut form a Nutmeg Book Award Committee that chooses 10 books of fiction that they think 7th and 8th graders may really like.  Middle schoolers are given a year to read any or all of these books.  Each year at the end of April they may vote for their favorite.  Teen Librarian Steve Zampino has recorded a book talk for almost all of this year's middle school nominees.  If you would like to hear his book talks to help you choose a book to read, go to the the library's Teen Reads page.
