It’s CYBILS time! This annual set of awards given by bloggers is so much fun. Nominations open today in ten categories, including Poetry! I have a been a judge several times, and it’s always a great experience. You can’t believe how much book-love and anguish and consideration goes into choosing the Finalists and Winners. (I have books eligible in two categories this year, Poetry and Nonfiction Picture Books, so I didn’t volunteer to judge.) So, look at your favorite books published between Oct. 15 of 2011 and Oct. 15 of this year, and go nominate! All the information you need can be found here!
And it’s also Banned Books Week. Is there a way you can get involved this week and show your support of the freedom to read?
