    Link and a Quote: Caldecott & Newbery Predictions 2009

    Link and a Quote is my version of a coffee (or tea) break with a good piece of cake …


    Link (or in this case, links):
    With the Caldecott and Newbery awards a week away (they will be announced on January 26), I have decided to share with you the predictions from one of my favorite blogs:

    • A Fuse #8 Production

    From taking a peep around the blogosphere, it seems to me that the following books certainly win the people’s choice award:

    Newbery

    • Savvy by Ingrid Law
    • The Underneath by Kathi Appelt
    • Waiting for Normal by Leslie Connor

    Caldecott

    • In a Blue Room by Jim Averbeck, illustrated by Tricia Tusa
    • Old Bear by Kevin Henkes
    • Wabi Sabi by Mark Reibstein
    • The Little Yellow Leaf by Carin Berger

    Quote: Accept challenges, so that you may feel the exhilaration of victory. ~ George S. Patton
