Thrills of the 2018 Printz Committee

I am beyond thrilled to be a part of the 2018 Printz Award for Excellence in Young Adult literature. The announcement today heralded the best books of the year.

My utmost respect is given for my fellow librarians and our work on the 2018 Printz . Likewise the plethora of talents of our winners—Laini Taylor, Jason Reynolds, Angie Thomas, Deborah Heiligman, and Nina Lacour.
