Something Different Every DaySomething Different Every DayFebruary 14, 2007 2006 Cybils–the bloggers’ award!http://dadtalk.typepad.com/cybils/2007/02/the_2006_cybils.html#more Congratulations to the group of bloggers who have diligently read and voted on the 2006 best children’s books. They just announced (on a blog, of course) their top choices in nine categories. What a great list! I’m especially thrilled to see Ptolemy’s Gate, An Egg Is Quiet, and A Drowned Maiden’s Hair pick up awards. How wonderful to see a process that included a large number of readers/voters, but made up of people who know the field. The Quills, of course, is more democratic, but not exactly in a good way to judge by the results (The Book Thief outvoted by Eldest, for instance). The Cybils hit the balance between knowledge and inclusiveness. No Comments »RSS feed for comments on this post. Leave a comment
