A new life goal: reading all 104 (and counting!) Newbery winners! My collection started yesterday, including 28 titles (plus two not pictured here). I am extremely interested to see how children’s lit has changed over time…

A good day for #KidLit #SchoolLibrarians #TLSKY and other book lovers because today was the ALA award announcements.

It’s been over a decade since the morning shows stopped having the Newbery/Caldecott winners on, the day after the announcement. Remember how exciting that always was? (1/3)

Back in 2016, I wrote my first ever #middlegrade #kidsbook. It's about a #polarbear on #holiday, and it's fun. It teaches #kids about #climate and #globalwarming. According to a #Newbery #bookreviewer in a five 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 it does so with a light
touch.

This weekend I was at the Hudson Children’s Book Festival. What a treat. I went from seeing an adorable dog in a backpack and a kid telling me that my books are better than baseball to touching @jerrycraft.bsky.social ‘s #Newbery medal for inspiration. Thanks Jerry! Hope you all had a fun weekend!
The Last Cuentista by Donna Barba Higuera. A sleeping girl surrounded by dream imagery (moon, planet, cactus, rabbit, spaceship, plants).
The Last Cuentista by Donna Barba Higuera is a beautifully written #middlegrade #SciFi book perfect for adults. Winner of the 2022 #Newbery medal. #BookSky 💙📚 #KidLit www.goodreads.com/review/show/...
A young woman stands very still, eyes closed, against a dim greenish-blue sky. A snake glides at her feet. Headphones on her ears connect by a cable to a device in her left hand. In her right hand she holds a book close to her chest. The young woman is brown, the snake is browner, and though you can't know it from the artwork alone, they're an Apache and a cottonmouth, and, once you know that, the illustration is consistent with those facts. At first glance you might think a scattering of yellow bits are stars in the sky, but on closer examination you would see that they're shaped like raindrops, or teardrops. The art style is simple and spare, and the book cover is uncluttered. There's an inset circle saying "National Book Award Longlist," but otherwise the only text is the title and author, "A Snake Falls to Earth; Darcy Little Badger."
For fun in February, A-Cover-A-Day, books I love; that's all.

Book cover of Pecos Bill: The Greatest Cowboy of All time by James Cloyd Bowman. Picture of a cowboy standing by a cactus.
Winner of a 1938 #Newbery Honor. While the legend of Pecos Bill lives on, the book does not stand the test of time and has some cringe factor. #KidLit #BookSky 💙📚 www.goodreads.com/review/show/...
