The Orbis Pictus choices do seem youngish. I really like the titles the Printz committee recognized, particulary JOHN LENNON, but there was a wealth of informational titles for older readers this year--HITLER YOUTH, GOOD BROTHER, BAD BROTHER, THE REAL REVOLUTION, INVISIBLE ALLIES, and OUR ELEANOR, to name a small handful. And I do think a YALSA informational award would not be unwelcome.
