    My dark horse would be THe False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen. I don't think it has a shot, however I offer up two words that fuel my hope: The Thief.

    I'm thinking "Extra Yarn" as another possible for Caldecott. Oh, and maybe "Looking for Lincoln."

And he's hot!! But it's not just me! We have an underground club of sorts here in District Four-Seafaring Librarians for Peeta! Here's what some of our members had to say about their love for Peeta: - Team Peeta!! I love their relationship because they balance each other perfectly. Where ...
