I had to share this. Too priceless.

What The Blueberry Award Seeks

The Blueberry Award is currently seeking children’s books published in 2009 that present one or more fruits, vegetables, nuts or seeds in a positive light. We’re open to board books, picture books, middle grade, YA, fiction, non-fiction, poetry and more. Because The Blueberry Award seeks to encourage healthful eating and lifestyles in a fun and entertaining way that appeals to children, we’re especially interested in books that are silly, whimsical and zany. But feel free to send us serious and/or subtle books, too, because they can be just as powerful. Simply stated, we invite you to submit any book that includes a fruit, vegetable, nut or seed (or any combination of them) in a positive light, no matter what role it plays in the story or plot. And if the fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds are fresh and organic, even better!
