The awards again

Yesterday, I was so pleased to find a link that noted the American Library Association awards that I forgot to remind you where you can find information about books in GALILEO.

NoveList (an Ebsco database that is not green and blue) has lists, links, suggestions and more for finding the perfect book to read for fun!

To find the Caldecott Medal books:
Select Browse lists
...Best Fiction, Children
......Literary (there are 81 different Literary Children's awards) This years winner is not listed, yet.

The book descriptions have a picture of the cover (most of us do judge a book by its cover).

It's a fascinating database with tools to help you keep track of what you've read!
Test it out. You get the current password to use GALILEO at home from your Georgia librarian.
