Studentreasures Publishing has announced 50 finalists in the 2024-2025 National Book Challenge. The Christmas Cookie Cookbook, written and illustrated by Mrs. Webster and Ms. Connolly's 4th grade classes at St. Brigid School in South Portland, was selected as one of the top 50 books this year. For this honor, each of the classes will receive a $50 gift card and every student will receive a published author certificate. These books were published earlier this year through Studentreasures’ free publishing program.
