    Fuse 8 n’ Kate: 2021 Caldecott Contenders

    Betsy Bird, January 11, 2021 | Best Books, Best Books of 2020, Fuse 8 n' Kate

    We discuss potential Caldecott winners on the podcast. I love all three of these books down to the cold cockles of my shriveled little heart. I seriously believe that each one of these books has a very good chance at some kind of Caldecott love in 2021.

    Newbery/Caldecott 2021: Fall Prediction Edition

    Betsy Bird, October 22, 2020 | Newbery / Caldecott Predictions

    If 2020 taught us anything, it's that predictions are useless. And yet, we are human. We try anyway. I give this year's crop of books the once over, and come up with some ideas. Let's see if you agree.

    Newbery/Caldecott 2021: Summer Prediction Edition

    Betsy Bird, July 15, 2020 | Best Books, Best Books of 2020, Newbery / Caldecott Predictions

    If you're anything like me, 2020 hasn't been a great year for reading. That's okay. This isn't a great list for predicting (but it's fun). See what may or may not win big in 2021!

    Spring Prediction Edition: Newbery / Caldecott 2021

    Betsy Bird, April 23, 2020 | Best Books, Best Books of 2020, Newbery / Caldecott Predictions

    This year's first round of predictions varies somewhat from those of the past because I am releasing the list in April rather than March. Turns out, pandemics are not good for forecasting. I've only just now gotten my head in order enough to try and offer a paltry take on what may or may not have a chance come January.

    Newbery/Caldecott 2020: Final Prediction Edition

    Betsy Bird, January 7, 2020 | Newbery / Caldecott Predictions

    I'm changing things up. This year I'm splitting my predictions into three categories: Best Chance, Maybe, and Probably Not. Will doing so make me any more accurate? Only time will tell.

    Newbery/Caldecott 2020: Summer Prediction Edition

    Betsy Bird, June 19, 2019 | Newbery / Caldecott Predictions

    Let's go and make predictions that will, in the end, only break our hearts when they turn out to be way off. And yet, there's is an off chance that one or two of these books really will make it to the finish line. Which ones? Let's see if you can figure it out . .

    Newbery / Caldecott 2020: Spring Prediction Edition

    Betsy Bird, March 18, 2019 | Best Books, Best Books of 2019, Newbery / Caldecott Predictions

    This is roundabout the time of year when I start stretching the old award-season muscles. I'm going to pull out the books for you that I think have a darn good chance. At the very least, they're contenders, if not outright winners. Something to guide your reading then.

    Fuse 8 n’ Kate: 2019 Caldecott Contenders

    Betsy Bird, January 14, 2019 | Fuse 8 n' Kate, Newbery / Caldecott Predictions

    Last year Kate and I discussed three potential Caldecott winners, and two later received medals. This year, Kate and I are discussing Dreamers, Blue, and We Don't Eat Our Classmates. And as per usual, Kate brings up stuff I never considered before. Questions like, how exactly does Penelope Rex eat her classmates so quickly (does she unhinge her jaw?). What does "caminantes" mean? And does the guy in Blue rename his girlfriend's dog? Stay tuned!
