It's Nomination Time for the 2008 Cybils...

The nominations period has begun for the 3rd annual Cybils awards--the premier Web awards for children's lit for which the readership at large nominates books in a variety of categories and a host of top bloggers reads them and chooses winners.

You can nominate books October 1-15. Finalists will be announced on New Year's Day, winners on February 14 (what a nice Valentine's Day gift for an author). In the meantime, Cybils will publish excerpts of reviews of the nominated titles.
