Sydney Taylor Book Award Blog Tour Schedule

I think it is a sign of my total (awesome) geek-itude that I went out and put all these books on reserve at the library as soon as the Sydney Taylor Book Awards were announced!


I am honored and excited to kick off the tour on Sunday, February 5th. 

Here is the whole schedule - make sure to visit each blog and don't forget to leave them all nice comments!
