Good Luck.<br /><br />I also got into blogging as a result of searching for the Newbery two years ago. I had read and reviewed all the winners that year, but my predictions fell a bit short when I choose <i>Wednesday Wars</i> for the medal and <i>Elijah of Buxton, Book of a Thousand Days</i> and <i>Emma Jean Lazarus Fell Out of a Tree</i> as honors. Come to think of it, I'm still pretty happy with those picks. <br /><br />Don't you sometime wish you could be a committee of one?DaNaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08433351609725965246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3205538229281562484.post-87502350731789099402010-01-16T09:30:44.593-05:002010-01-16T09:30:44.593-05:00Stable Granny -- I couldn't agree with you mor...Stable Granny -- I couldn't agree with you more!
