The 2nd Annual Children’s and Young Adult Blogger’s Literary Awards have been announced!  Congratulations to the winners!

I am especially pleased with the winners in the Science Fiction/Fantasy category which I helped to nominate and which happen to be two of my favorites in each of the age groups!  I am thrilled!

The True Meaning of Smekday by Adam Rex

Book of a Thousand Days by Shannon Hale

Both of these books are real wonders that offer fresh perspectives, unique situations, and great characterizations.
