Barnum in Columbus

I'm very pleased to learn that Barnum's Bones was selected as a Top 20 Children's Book of 2012 by the Columbus Dispatch.  You can view the entire list here.  It's wonderful to see Barnum in the company of so many other books that I enjoyed this year, including Wonder by R.J. Palacio, The Fault in Our Stars by John Green, and the delightful Z is for Moose by Kelly Bingham and Paul O. Zelinski.

Great news!  I recently learned that Barnum Brown has been included on the awesome 2013-2014 Texas Bluebonnet Award master list.  Eligible young readers in grades 3-6 who have read at least 5 books on the list can vote for their favorite.  I'm absolutely thrilled to be included in this list of 20 fiction and nonfiction books.  You can check out the list here and vote for Barnum!
