Hooray!
I want to say "HOORAY" to Marietta Zacker and Nancy Gallt for having such an awesome list of 2011 CBC picks!

Please check out the list of books below if you're interested in some good reads or want to get to know the agency better--they have picks in every age range. And yes, that one about the rats is pretty awesome--you know I had to add that. ;) Click the link below for the complete 2011 picks!
