2019 Newbery Contender Book Trailers

Grab your popcorn and a comfy spot. Maybe a pencil and paper, too. It's time to watch a bunch of book trailers of 2019 Newbery contenders created by my fifth graders.  I have even more--these are some of the best and I really didn't want to overload you too much! BUT if you want to see more, just send me a message!

One week (!) from today we will know the winners! In this year of really awesome, incredible children's literature, I have NO IDEA what books are going to rise to the top in those closed door meetings next weekend.  NO. IDEA.
