Rebecca Caudill State Winner


The state winner of the 2008 Rebecca Caudill award is Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie by Jordan Sonnenblick. Readers across the state, a total of 38,340 of them, agreed with us that Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie was the best book on the Caudill list this year. The other place winners are:

2nd place: The Old Willis Place by Mary Downing Hahn

3rd place: MVP*: Magellan Voyage Project by Douglas Evans

4th place: The Miraculous Journey by Kate DiCamillo

5th place: The Ranger's Apprentice/Ruins of Gorlan by John Flanagan


Station agreed that Old Willis Place was 2nd, but pushed Ruins of Gorlan up to third. Judgely, by how fast the Ranger's Apprentice books fly off the shelf, I agree!
