Every year since 1922, the American Library Association has awarded the very prestigious Newbery Medal. Now that we've already learned of our 2011 winner, a quick calculation tells us that there are 89 Newbery Medal books in all! That's a lot! Have you read them all?

Hello, this is James Kennedy, the co-curator of the "90-Second Newbery" film festival!
I'm also the author of the young adult fantasy The Order of Odd-Fish. I notice you do not have it in your catalog. THUS, YOUR LIBRARY WILL SOON FEEL THE FULL FORCE OF MY WRATH.
Regards,
Your imminent annihilator
Wow! So cool that you found this post! Anyway I (the blogger) am not in charge of ordering, but I'll pass along the word! :)
