We also challenged them to add their favorite children’s book title to a running list, with a goal of collecting 60 unique book titles.

After deciding that we were going to order these books for our library, we wanted to somehow honor them and give them special meaning. After learning about different types of awards books, the children in Gan Rimonim wanted to create a “Community Favorite Award” for the books from Share the Nachas Day. Each of the children were given a small piece of paper to design an award. The only guideline for their designs was that it needed to say, “Community Favorite” somewhere on the design. After our class voted to narrow it down to their favorite 5 designs, we asked for all the Kindergarten students to vote on their favorite. You can tell which books in our South Campus Community Library are truly “Community Favorites” because the seal adorns the books telling you so.
