Newbery Winners

January 14th, 2008

good-master-sweet-ladies-laura-amy-schlitz-book-Covert-Art The American Library Assocation has just announced the winners of the Newbery Award.  I have heard that Christopher Paul Curtis’s book is really funny and to be one of his best ever.  Has anyone out there read it yet?  Actually, the honor titles appeal to me more than the winner.  I have put in my request at the public library and will share the winner with a few classes.  If the kids and I like it, then I’ll put it on my order sheet.  Stay tuned for the Caldecott winners tomorrow.  Time to go read the Bailey School Kids to my son, Jake!

Newbery winner:  Good Masters, Sweet Ladies. by Laura Amy Schlitz

Newbery honor:
Elijah of Buxton. by Christopher Paul Curtis
The Wednesday Wars. by Gary D. Schmidt
Feathers. by Jacqueline Woodson
