Books in California Young Reader Medal - Intermediate
The California Young Reader Medal is a set of five annual literary awards conferred upon picture books and fiction books selected by vote of California schoolchildren from a ballot prepared by a committee. The program was established in 1974 with Intermediate, Primary, and Young Adult Medals, which were inaugurated in 1975, 1976, and 1977, respectively. These medals were conferred biennially until 1983, when the conferment became annual.
