My 15 favorite Newbery Winners

The One and Only Ivanby Katherine Applegate (2013).

I pretty much don’t care for animals (I know) and I STILL think this is one of the best kids books ever, Newbery winner or not. When a book is this sweet, funny, and well-written, who cares if it’s narrated by a gorilla? Not me. ( Full review here )

Moon over Manifestby Clare Vanderpool (2011).

I thought this was just a ridiculously fine piece of historical fiction. Funny, clever, surprising, and smart. ( Full review here )

A Single Shardby Linda Sue Park (2002).

I didn’t know I had any interest in 12th century Korea until I read this. Then I made everyone I know read it. ( Full Review here )

A Year Down Yonderby Richard Peck (2001).

Do you wish to laugh your head off? This is the book for you. ( Full review here )

Holesby Louis Sachar (1999).

I seriously think this book is just the cleverest, weirdest book ever. I’m not a fan of most of his books ( Wayside Schoolis not for me), but this one is fantastic every time I read it.

The View from Saturdayby E.L. Konigsburg (1997).

This is one of the first books I ever remember reading where I thought, “Whoa, this is a well-written book.” And just fun.

Walk Two Moonsby Sharon Creech (1995).

Road trip books and quirky books are both not my things. But this book is terrific. ( Full review here )

The Giverby Lois Lowry (1994).

I didn’t read this Newbery winner until I was an adult, and then I immediately read the entire thing aloud to Bart. Can’t wait to see the movie!

Number the Starsby Lois Lowry (1990).

This was one of the first chapter books I read on my own (apparently my mom didn’t believe I actually had understood any of it and then I recapped the entire book for her).

Dicey’s Songby Cynthia Voigt (1983).

I’d heard of this for years, but didn’t get around to reading it until I checked the first book, Homecoming, and then this one out from the library on audio when my library was going to be closed for a month and I had plenty of time to get through some 25 CDs. It was one of the most delightful listening experiences of my life.

Bridge to Terabithiaby Katherine Paterson (1978).

This was another one I read as an adult and it’s one of my all-time favorites now. Heart-breaking and 100% perfect. ( Full review here )

Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cryby Mildred D. Taylor (1977).

I read this as a kid and then I reread it in grad school and sobbed my stupid eyes out.

Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMHby Robert C. O’Brien (1972).

I remember the crazy excitement I felt reading it as a kid and watching the entire plot unfold.

The Bronze Bowby Elizabeth George Speare (1962).

When I was really trying to make progress through the Newbery award winners a few years ago, I was prepared to suffer through this. And then I just LOVED every second of it.
