Name: 


  1. The Black-Eyed Susan Book Award honors outstanding books chosen annually by Maryland students. Each year since 1992, the Black-Eyed Susan Book Award has been given to one book in each of several grade-level categories. The 99/00 school year was the first year that a book was selected to receive the award by Maryland high school students. After reading at least 3 of the nominated books, a student is eligible to cast one vote for the book he or she considers to be the most outstanding. Votes from across the state are sent to the Black-Eyed Susan committee and tallied to determine the winner in each grade-level category. The winning authors and/or illustrators receive a pewter plate engraved with the year and the Black-Eyed Susan Book Award logo. Authors, illustrators and publishers recognize the Black-Eyed Susan Book Award as an honor bestowed by Maryland students.
