I'm excited about The Newbery Project and have already written a post about it on my Bonnie's Books blog. Although I've already read 21 of the books, I plan to read them again in order to write reviews of each one, except the 2007 book which I have recently reviewed.

ReplyDeleteI have devoted my September reading to these titles and have been enjoying a reading feast! I am reading The Higher POwer of Lucky at present. Having just read your review I doubt if I will be able to add anything myself!
