Ok, so two posts in one day. I don't do that often anymore.
But today's exciting news....
You all know by now that my favorite author is Neil Gaiman. By a longshot. It's soooo not even close.
Anyways, his newest book, The Graveyard Book, just won the Newbery Medal!
Freakin' A Awesome. For those that don't know what the Newbery Medal is, it basically means that the American Library Association thinks it is badass!
Their, somewhat less excitable, explanation is "The Newbery Medal honors the author of the most distinguished contribution to American literature for children."
In other words, this is a badass book that your child should read. (And their parents as well.) It's THAT good!
I'll have to check it out! I think its funny that you explained what the newberry award is, do people not know?
