I've spent the morning browsing the various Newbery predictions (Fuse #8, SLJ Heavy Medal) and thought I'd log my own for the record. I have read so many amazing books this year! Here are my top ten:
Diamond Willow by Helen Frost (This is my personal prediction for the Newbery)
We Are the Ship: The Story of Negro League Baseball by Kadir Nelson (Can I have two predictions? I predict this will win every award there is including an Oscar and a Tony)
Every Soul a Star by Wendy Mass
Shooting the Moon by Frances O'Roark Dowell
Ringside 1925: Views From the Scopes Trial by Jen Bryant
The Boy Who Dared by Susan Campbell Bartoletti
Grow by Juanita Havill
Clementine's Letter by Sara Pennypacker
Alvin Ho by Lenore Look
The London Eye Mystery by Siobhan Dowd
And here are the books I haven't yet read, which if they win will force me to stop what I am doing and immediately go buy a copy to read that minute:
Chains by Laurie Halse Anderson
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
After Tupac & D Foster by Jacqueline Woodson
The Porcupine Year by Louise Erdrich
Octavian Nothing Volume II: The Kingdom on the Waves by M.T. Anderson (actually I have a copy of this - no excuse, I need to read it.)
Thanks for the comments.Now all became clear, I thank for the help and I hope to see more such articles.
