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:
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
