Oh Happy Days - ALSC Notable Booklist Available
ALA's Association for Children annually publishes a huge list of the most notable books for the previous year. According to the Notable Books website:
Each year a committee of the Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC) identifies the best of the best in children's books. According to the Notables Criteria, "notable" is defined as: Worthy of note or notice, important, distinguished, outstanding. As applied to children's books, notable should be thought to include books of especially commendable quality, books that exhibit venturesome creativity, and books of fiction, information, poetry and pictures for all age levels (birth through age 14) that reflect and encourage children's interests in exemplary ways.
This year's list is chock full of goodies for all ages.
