| Letter From Booker T. Worm |
And The Winner Is....
The American Library Association (otherwise known as the ALA) has announced its 2003 awards --- the Newbery, Caldecott, Coretta Scott King and Robert F. Sibert --- honoring the best children's books published in 2002. And we've got them all for you right here! Your teachers would love to know this news, so you may want to show them this page, or print it out for them.
If you are looking for a book to read, these lists may be a great place to start.
Is it cold where you live? It sure is in our town. When the wind is howling and the snow is falling, what could be more fun than curling up with a book? In fact, I think I am going to go do that right now.
Keep reading...we have lots of news this month...
