Book Pick of the Week - 2010 Printz Award Winner

The Michael L. Printz Award is awarded by the Young Adult Library Services Association (a division of the American Library Association) for a book that exemplifies literary excellence in young adult literature. This year's selection is:



Going Bovine by Libba Bray
Cameron Smith, a disaffected sixteen year old, who after being diagnosed with Creutzfeld Jakob's (aka mad cow) disease, sets off on a road trip with a death obsessed video gaming dwarf he meets in the hosptal in an attempt to find a cure.
This is a wild and wacky fantasy that you will not soon forget!
