ACPL Mock Newbery 2009 Results

Today a group of 17 children's literature lovers met to discuss the great selection of children's books published in 2009. It was a tough decision, but after lots of wonderful discussion we selected our Mock Newbery winner and one honor book.

The winner of the 2009 ACPL Mock Newbery is Chains by Laurie Halse Anderson.

Our group selected one Honor Book. It is Diamond Willow by Helen Frost.

Great books from a great year of books! Now we will all anxiously await the announcement of the "real" winner!
