Hip, Hip....

Hooray for all the various award winners this morning (and there are lists all over the place, but I'll link you to Kids Lit where Tasha blogged 'em live from ALA with her reactions. After today, you should start at this post and move down... but again, you'll find lists galore).

I just want to tip my hat to Brian Selznick and The Invention Hugo Cabret for winning the Caldecott. I would think this is a bold choice by the committee, too, so maybe they deserve the hat-tipping. But regardless, it's nice to see something original (not to mention good!) being rewarded.
