For Children's Book Week, check out the Kid Lit Giveaway Hop (with cool giveaways and prizes)

Happy Children's Book Week, all! I'm a little late to the party, but then for me every week is children's book week.

All the same, I thought I should point you to this cool event over at Mother Daughter Book Reviews: a kid lit giveaway connecting to all kinds of other blogs, with great prizes. It's like a giant virtual book party where you can win stuff--now what's better than that, right?

Read on, YA Sleutheri... And consider making it a children's book this week.

Congrats to the Edgar winners!

For Juvenile, The Quick Fix by Jack D. Ferraiolo won the prize; for YA, Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein.

I read most of the nominees in both categories (didn't make it through all--drat!), and have to say this was the strongest year in nominees I've seen. So big kudos to the winners and the nominees!

Let's all have some cake...
