Now here’s a “best of” list that I can get behind– the 25 Best Children’s Books of 2009, as decided on by Grandparents.com. One of the things I miss the most about being a school librarian is the exposure to new books, so it was great to have a list of recommended selections. After reading the list, I now have quite a few requests pending at my local library! The Caldecott/Newbury awards are announced in January, and who knows– maybe one of these books will be the winner.
Winter is such a great time for “hibernating” with a book. Hope you enjoy snuggling up to these titles! {and of course let me know if you’ve read any… I’m curious to hear your opinions!}
Many thanks to my mom (a.k.a. YiaYia) for the link!
Oh, I’m going to have to check it out… see how many we have… or NEED to get!
We are big book readers in our house, too.
Happy New Year.
