The Author
Here is some information about this year’s Newbery Award and Honor books. The American Library Association’s Association for Library Service to Children gives out these awards every year. I was in Seattle for the conference until this weekend, but I didn’t get to see them announce the winners. The winner and honor books are:
The Higher Power of Lucky by Susan Patron, illustrated by Matt Phelan (Simon & Schuster/Richard Jackson)
Honor Books
Penny from Heaven by Jennifer L. Holm (Random House)
Hattie Big Sky by Kirby Larson (Delacorte Press)
Rules by Cynthia Lord (Scholastic)
