Abstract

What’s your favorite Newbery Medal-winning book? For me, hands down, it’s the book I most recommend at my library—Neil Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book. (A close second is Last Stop on Market Street . . . but, wait, then there’s Flora & Ulysses . . . ).

OK, you get my point. It’s tough to pick just one; thankfully, we have one hundred years of fantastic literature to choose from! And all so different—the list now, thankfully, includes a picture book and a graphic novel, and more books from BIPOC authors are being rightfully honored.
