My junior year of college I took a Children's Literature course as one of my required course. I really enjoyed it for the most part. When I graduated with my B.S in Elementary Education but ended up not teaching, I had this wild idea to read all the Newbery books. I checked out a few from my local library but I didn't get very far. I put the idea out of my head.
Fast forward to 5 years later. I was married and about to start a Masters of Arts in Teaching to finally actually teach. The idea came to me again and this time I got a little serious about it.
Of course, this will be a neverending project as a new set of Newbery books come out every year.
My goal with this blog is to post the Newbery Medal and Honor books by year as I read them. I'm not necessarily reading the books in order.
Also included on this blog may be different book series as well that are not Newbery related.
