The Sunshine State Young Readers Award (SSYRA) Program is a statewide reading motivational program for students in grades K through 8. It encourages students to read independently for pleasure and is meant to help to improve their reading fluency. Sunshine State books are selected annually for their wide appeal, literary value, varied genres, curriculum connections, and/or multicultural representation.
Florida Teens Reads is designed to entice teens in grades 9 through 12 to read. In order to spark their interest and to provide a spur to critical thinking, the book selections engage high school students by reflecting their interests as well as representing a variety of genres, formats, reading levels, viewpoints, and ethnic and cultural perspectives.
