Our April suggestions are in and we now have 30 titles on our Heavy Medal Mock Newbery list so far. Six titles are clumped near the top with at least four suggestions each, then we’ve got 24 books with one or two votes. Which all makes sense since we’re so early in the year. We’ll open up May suggestions in a few weeks. Here is our list of suggestions so far:
