I think it's interesting to see how a book was or wasn't honored. In the case of this year's Newbery awards, it doesn't surprise me to see that Desperaux wasn't on a number of lists. Someone asked me before Midwinter what my Newbery choice was. I had to say that I didn't have one. For me, there were a lot of really good books (including some that weren't mentioned in lists etc.) but no one really great book.
