2012 Newbery and Caldecott Announced

They tweeted it before they updated their website with a press release!

It was driving me crazy, all morning, waiting for the announcement from Dallas.

Here's the press release.

Here's the webcast if you want to watch it "live". You can in fact sign up to see the webcast live but we were too late.

If you are a Twitter person you can follow them at @ALAyma.
