Congratulations are due to two writers in the Endicott circle: Neil Gaiman, who has won the prestigious Newbery Medal (from the Association for Library Service to Children) for The Graveyard Book (illustrated by Dave McKean); and to Margarita Engle, whose latest poetry volume, The Surrender Tree: Poems of Cuba's Struggle for Freedom, is a 2009 Newbery Honor Book. Great news!



Congrats indeed! The Graveyard Book was magical, and I'll have to check out the other soon!
