SLJ Battle of the Books Reminder

If you're not following School Library Journal's Battle of the Books, in which famous children's authors judge the best books of 2009, it's not too late to catch up! Click here to see what has won -- and lost -- so far. Gary Schmidt, one of my favorite authors (and one I've gotten to meet a few times!) just had to choose between Marcelo in the Real World and Marching For Freedom. The battle is brutal, people.
