Gale, to what age group did you booktalk Wringer? Tell us more...
Those who want to comment on any of the Caldecott choices can include any of the Caldecott or Notable Children's Books Committee. I realize that the actual Caldecott, Newbery, Batchelder & Wilder Committees have an ethic of confidentiality for each group's discussions, but that does not limit individuals on any committee from saying what s/he thinks about any of the books. We'd love to hear from any of you, as well as from others who've used any of these books with children.
Wringer, anyone? Caldecott choices, anyone? ... Ginny

I booktalked Wringer on the first day of children's lit class and one of the guys already had it by the next session ;-)
I think I connected with the book because I was a middle/girl child with male siblings. In my brain I could see it in the neighborhood where I grew up.

PS- I think I posted this to the wrong list! The current Wringer discussion seems to be here not on child_lit. Sorry for the duplication :-(
