Vote for the Newbery!

The winner of the
2013 Newbery Award
(along with the Caldecott and others)
will be announced
on January 28.

The only folks who know
which books are being considered
are the people on the
selection committee.
It's TOP SECRET.

But we have our own favorites
that we think have a good chance.

Take a look at the poll to your right
>>>>>>>
and cast your vote --
you can pick as many as you want.

And if we missed your favorite,
leave us a comment on this post
and let us know.

We've got some more favorites
that we didn't put in the poll...
stop by the library to get
a top-shelf recommendation.

Who knows...you may
be reading a winner right now!
