Youth Services Small Program RoomJoin kids across the state to read, and discuss the nominees for the Young Hoosier Book Award!
This book club will read selected titles from the 2026-2027 Intermediate Young Hoosier Book Award nominee list from August 2026 to April 2027. Participants will then vote for their choice to win the award in the Intermediate category!
Titles from the Intermediate nominee list are aimed at kids in Grades 3-5 (Ages 8-11). Kids are encouraged to come each month but it is not required! We will not be able to read through the entire list by April so feel free to read books that are on the list but not chosen for the club on your own time as well.
Books will be available for pickup at the start of each month for new participants or at meetings for participants who plan on attending the next month's meeting. Each meeting will feature a book discussion and an activity!

When 12 year old escape artist Sarah finds out that her home may be foreclosed, her life seems to be out of control. When her best friend Hannah tells her of a legend that there may be treasure hidden in the walls of an abandoned fun house in her town, she's intrigued. Supposedly, the treasure was placed there by 3 siblings who spent their childhoods in foster homes, wanting to make the ultimate of escape room mysteries. Sarah and her friends decide to explore, and find themselves in a house unlike any other.
