2014 CYBILS Awards

It's no secret that I love picture books.  In fact, I've gone as far as saying I'm addicted to picture books.  Someone over at the CYBILS panel must believe that about me because I've been selected to be on the Round 1 picture book judging panel!  After celebrating quietly for several days, it feels great to SHOUT IT OUT LOUD!  I'M A CYBILS JUDGE!

Have you read some great picture books this year?  Super!  Get ready to nominate!  Or maybe you love early readers, chapter books, middle grade or young adult novels?  Nominations open on October 1, and you'll want to keep me busy reading, right?  You've got until October 15th to nominate, so it's time to reevaluate the past year.  Hmmm... what were my favorites again?  You'll find nomination guidelines here. 

Keep the CYBILS mission in mind:

"We aim to recognize the children’s and young adult authors and illustrators whose books combine the highest literary merit and popular appeal."

Our picture book panel is headed by the amazing Pam Coughlin of Mother Reader and KidLitoSphere.

It was so exciting to finally share it today that I got very little done once the announcement was out. :) Although, I did eat cake. Thanks, Telaina.

    As a children’s writer, and a teacher, my goal is to help you carry on.  Sometimes learning is challenging, so why go it alone?  Your journey will be more meaningful and comfortable with friends to share it with. Together, we'll get up close and personal with authors, illustrators, and the best of picture books.  If we work together, great things will follow!
