Kids Lit
Books and More for Children and Teens

The finalists for the 2007 National Book Awards in Young People's Literature have been announced.  And what a great slate of candidates it is!  Two of my all-time favorites of the year, so I look forward to reading the others. 

Right now my vote goes to The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian.  A spectacular read.
