I
am pleased to announce that in spite of COVID-19 doing its best to remove the
memory of physical galleys and ARCs from our collective consciousness, I was
able to work on these lists all the year. I definitely missed things. We all
did! How could we not? But thanks to the efforts of my library’s 101 Great
Books for Kids committee, I have a pretty good sense of the year. I’ve seen
beautifully written, horribly depressing middle grade novels galore (more than
usual, I think). The physical abuse of girls? Everywhere! Picture books, on the
other hand, couldn’t be sunnier, though many tackled serious issues with
aplomb. I don’t envy the Newbery/Caldecott/ALA YMA committees this year one
smackerel. However, I bet they’ll all do a stand up and cheer job.
All 2020 titles. All good as gold.
