This week I am showing the kids the new Caldecott and Newbery winners for 2008. I am quite proud that I had purchased both of them already and had them on my new book displays. I was in the middle of reading The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman when the award was announced. I'm almost finished, and I like it. It's definitely a book for kids that like things creepy. But, he manages to keep a sweetness to it that is very charming and that I really enjoyed.
I'm also reading Little Beauty, by Anthony Browne. I love it, if I'd been on the committee it would have gotten a Caldecott!
