Eat, Read, and Be Mommy

I was totally going to post on Sunday, and then–I didn’t.  But we had our college kids over (nieces and nephews!), and there were birthday cakes for the February birthdays, and there was cooking and baking and grilling, and then, when they left, there was exercising.  The OTHER reason it was a big weekend was the ALA Midwinter meeting, at which (on the Monday) they announce their Youth Media Award winners for the year.  You can see the press release with the complete list of winners here.

Sadly, I’m still waiting for them to announce a Newbery that I’ve already read; on the other hand, one of the Theodore Seuss Geisel winners was already in my son’s reading pile, and quite a few of the winners were at least on my radar.  (Come to think of it, another of the Geisel books was already read by 2/3 of us and then returned.)  Take a look at the list, folks, and add a few books to your own!
