To remind everyone: The Ohio Center for the Book is our state’s affiliate of the Center for the Book at the Library of Congress in Washington, DC. Every year, each of the 56 affiliate Centers across the country chooses a book for adults and a book for younger
readers to represent their state/territory at the National Book Festival in Washington, DC. Those books also become part of the Great Reads from Great Places booklist!</div>
