While waiting

The big announcement is due at 1pm EST (check Chicken Spaghetti for details on how to, in theory, access the ALA website).

I think I'll be happy with the Caldecott--there's not one rumored title that I didn't like or that left me cold. The Newbery, however. A lot of us--okay, maybe just me--would really like to see a fun, entertaining but smart book win this year. Something like Kiki Strike or A Drowned Maiden's Hair. I'm keeping my fingers crossed while waiting.
