More Entries for the Best Children's Books '09 List

The page here called "Best Children's Books of 2009: The Big List of Lists" keeps growing. I'm waiting on School Library Journal's lineup*, which ought to be announced shortly; meanwhile, I've added a bunch of links recently, including the following:

Best Hockey Books for Kids! Excellent timing--we have a hockey player visiting the library to read to kids in just a couple weeks!

Oh thanks! I love reading these lists annually.

Now that is cool, Adrienne. I may even suggest that to our library. We have a minor-league hockey team nearby that's very popular.

Jules, I have a good time collecting lists and get so excited every time I see the names of people I know on them! Our blogging/writing chums are doing well this year.
