 We Don’t Eat Our Classmates. Ryan T Higgens New York Times Best Seller This story scratched a very old bit of nostalgia for me, and reminded me of the picture books I had as a Child.  Where The Sidewalk Ends  Shel Silverstein I believe This qualifies, tho shels style is a bit more minimalist that I expected Giraffes Can’t Dance Giles Andreae Guy Parker Rees Giraffes can’t dance absolutely qualifies as a picture storybook

 For my award winning book, I chose The Giver. The Giver is a Newberry award winner I saw many times on shelves as a Child, yet never actually read. Now having read the book, its interesting just how well it would have fit in among the other Books I read at the time. Given that I’ve always been a Dystopian fiction fan, its interesting to see a few Tropes that have permeated the genre work so well with the Givers Target audience. While it has no Harrison Ford with an origami unicorn, it does have an excellently crafted Sled ride to enjoy.
