...kids books. From the School Library Journal website, "School Library Journal's Battle of the Kids' Books is a competition between 16 of the very best books for young people of the year, judged by some of the biggest names in children's books."
And here is a convenient link to the site (Click here) so you can check out the contenders. I have read a few of them and others are definitely on my "To Read..." list AND as usual there are a few I am not familiar with. Which means...more books for my extensive list of those I just NEEEEEED to read. I may have to quit my job in order to read all day!
