A group of us had a great time Saturday talking about the wonderful features of the books presented this year on this blog. It was a difficult decision, but we're pleased to announce that
Underground, by Shane W. Evans, impressed us enough to be named our mock author AND illustrator award-winner in our annual Mock Coretta Scott King Book Awards. Don't miss looking at this book that explains the underground railroad to young readers, or those below that we named mock honor books. The
real Coretta Scott King Book Awards will be announced at 8:45 a.m. on Monday, January 23, when 18 youth media awards are announced by the American Library Association. You can tune in at 8:30 a.m.
here for a live webcast.
