Nobody deserves this award more than Lee. His contributions to children's poetry are enormous--both his own poems and his promotion of poets and poetry. We love ya, Lee!

Hip, Hip, Hurray! 
Lee, this honor is much deserved. You have done so much to promote the love 
and importance of poetry.   
And how appropriate that it will be presented at a luncheon at the NCTE 
conference in Philadelphia next November.  (Lee is a native Pennsylvanian!) 
Congratulations, Lee!

Hello, again, everyone ~ 
               I don't usually post messages about a book that I have read 
(there would be too many posts!) but I want everyone to know about this 
little charmer -- The Rights of the Reader, by Daniel Pennac, translated by 
Sarah Adams, with illustrations and a forward by Quentin Blake, published by 
Candlewick.  I've had so much fun reading this and sharing passages aloud 
with anyone who was within shouting distance (following rule 9).  Readers 
will appreciate this small volume. I think every reader has his/her favorite 
book about reading.  This one is now high on my list.

Yes, great book, Carole! In case it sounds familiar, it looks like a new 
translation from the French of "Comme un roman" which I think was first 
published in English in 1994 in Canada by Coach House Press as "Better Than 
Life," translated by David Homel. Homel, like Adams, is an award-winning 
translator. I'm sure I've seen the rights of the reader as a poster, too, 
but it's been a while. Here are Pennac's rights of the reader on their own 
(translator unknown):
