Woo-Hoo!!!!

Yes…I still need to update on Down to the Bone by Mayra Lazara Dole. And I will soon. Perhaps tonight or sometime this weekend.
But first, some exciting news.

I was chosen to be a member of an ALA/ALSC award selection committee! Yay! It’s the 2010 Carnegie Medal for the most distinguished American video for children! As you can imagine, I am stoked.

But wait…there’s more!

As exciting as that is, there is even more exciting news in my little portion of library land. A colleague has been chosen for an award selection committee as well. Which one, you ask?

Newbery.

Yes. Newbery.

So, please join me in sending thoughts of congratulations to my friend Lori…who will be unable to get any work done – at least tonight.

Congrats, Lori!!!
