Feeling the Love - CYBILs Announced

No award season is complete without the CYBILS - the Children's and Young Adult Bloggers Literary Awards!  

As the judges contend, these are the books that have the "perfect blend of kid appeal and literary awesomeness."  For a mom who simultaneously appreciates and deplores the Archie Comics that have wreaked havoc on our reading diversity for months -- I can't wait to dig in to the 2013 CYBILS award winners with my kids.

First up are:





'Tis the Season - for Winners!

February is always an exciting time in the world of Children's Literature.  For 2013, the Caldecott and Newbery went to The One and Only Ivan by Katherine Applegate and This is Not My Hat by Jon Klassen, respectively.




A host of other books were of course given honors by the Caldecott and Newbery judges.
