An Update on "Letters about Literature"

LAL Contest Update from LAL Central! As a participant in this year’s Letters About Literature competition, we’re sending you this February update. LAL received 54,000 letters this year from your readers across the country. Of these, our team eliminated 49,000 in the first two rounds of assessment. What happens next? Round 3 – state level judging is now underway. Each state center for the book has its own panel of judges and will select their state winners on or before March 6.
