Teachers, librarians, and interested adults! Sign up now to participate in the annual ACPL Mock
Newbery Election. Help us pick the most distinguished work of children's literature published in 2011.

This is the second short reading list for this year's Mock Newbery program at the Allen County Public Library
in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Titles new to this list are in bold.
We encourage comments on all of the books on the ACPL Mock Newbery Blog,
but the books on this short list will be 'brought to the table' to be discussed in more depth at our Mock
Newbery Discussion and Election, to be held on Saturday, January 7, 2012, from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
We'd love to have YOU join us! If you would like to sign up to attend the Mock Newbery Election,
