winner of the Newbery Medal in 1990 for Number the Stars
and in 1994 for The Giver

This is the book, this and It's Like This, Cat, that inspired me to read all the Newbery winners. And it's sitting next to my bed right now because I was dipping into it yesterday. A bold and worthy choice by the committee.Posted : Jun 15, 2012 05:28
