Books Set in State and the Northwest for Children and Young Adults

A Selected Bibliography August 2009

Washington State Library Office of the Secretary of State 6880 Capitol Boulevard South, Tumwater WA www.secstate.wa.gov/library

This is the fourth edition of Go West Young Reader. These bibliographies are the result of Washington State Librarian Jan Walsh‘s seasonal Washington Reads program. Ms. Walsh launched the program in fall 2003 on the 150th anniversary of the arrival of the Territorial Library books in Olympia. Each subsequent quarter Ms. Walsh chooses a theme and selects at least one adult, one young adult, and one children‘s book as part of her Washington Reads program. This list continues to grow as the State Library seeks and purchases more children and young adult books for its Northwest collection.

The call numbers for many of these items are in the process of being updated. Please check the catalog, www.secstate.wa.gov/library to see if an item‘s call number has changed.

Many titles have annotations in quotes. These annotations are from the Washington State Library‘s online catalog.

NW prefixed books are available for check out and interlibrary loan. RARE, R (Reference), and GWA (Governor‘s Writers Award) prefixed books are available to be viewed only at the State Library.

WR denotes a book selected by Washington State Librarian, Jan Walsh, for her Washington Reads program.
