26 Faramount Avenue by Tomie dePaola
I think it should be a Newbery Honor Book because it's a biography with a twist. It is a picture book and also a novel at the same time. Three for the price of one, has a very valuable meaning and you enjoy it when you read it. That's why it deserves a Newbery Honor Book Award.

The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo
The Tale of Despereaux is about a brave little mouse who loves a princess named Princess Pea. The Princess Pea is taken down in the dungeon by a rat named Roscuro. Can the mouse save the princess in time? Or will he fail and the princess with stay there forever? Read the book and find out! I think it got a Newbery award because it is a great book because it gives the reader suspense and it has a lot of characters and the author describes the characters well.

Strega Nona by Tomie de Paola
Strega Nona had a magical pot that would cook soup in a second! A young man that helps Strega Nona saw how she made it cook but he did not know how to turn it off. He turned it on but the pot just kept overflowing! He had to eat all of the pasta to clean the village. I thought it should be an award winner because the story had good suspense and the punishment was funny.

Saint George And The Dragon by Margaret Hodges
This book is about a Red Cross Knight that is sent by fairies to battle the furious, scaly dragon. The Red Cross Knight was ready to battle when the great dragon came. The knight had the Princess Una for company. One day the town heard the roar of the dragon. Read the book to find out what happens. I think this book got the award because the drawings are so realistic.

Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli
I think Maniac Magee got to be a Newbery because it is really funny and adventurous. And also Maniac Magee is brave and curious, and that's what makes it funny. But the main thing that I think it got to be a Newbery for is because Maniac Magee is different and everyone likes different.

Rabbit Hill by Robert Lawson
Rabbit Hill is about animals who live near or on a hill. The time is rough because there isn't much food to support the families. Little Georgie, a rabbit, is sent to get Uncle Analdas, since he was living beyond the hill alone. There are also new folks coming, which caused Little Georgie to make up a song. After uncle Analdas comes back with Little Georgie the new folks come. With them they bring an old cat who won't even hurt a fly. The new folks also put up a sign that says "Please drive carefully on account of small animals". The new folks also have a garden which on Midsummer's cue they pick which vegetables they want. I think this book got the Newbery Award because it has great details, along with the characters of the book. It also has suspense and humour, which makes the reader want to continue reading. :)

Joyful Noise by Paul Fleischman
In the book Joyful Noise there are two voices that are very joyful. In this book there are lots of insects that talk in a unique way. They all need food so they go on their mission to find the food. There are lots of insects. My favorite two are the grasshopper and butterfly. This is a great book.
