Love them or hate them, these are your 2012 Newbery Award Winners. The committee had a very difficult task with so many amazing books to choose from. All 4 of these books are available in The Lemme Library. I have only read Inside Out & Back Again, I have Dead End in Norvelt sitting next to me right now. I can't complain at all about these winners, but I will post my Bizarro Newbery Winners very soon!
This was my first year of feeling invested in the Newbery/Caldecott thing. I really tried to keep up with the books that seemed to be getting lots of buzz, buying them (which has to be done WAY ahead of time since I'm overseas) and reading them. So, when books won that I didn't have it was a bit disappointing. For sure I'll buy them now, but it would have been fun to feel more "in the loop." Oh well! Maybe next year :)
