Are you running Mock Caldecott, Newbery, Printz, Sibert, or Coretta Scott King award discussions? This round-up of the year’s starred reviews for juvenile literature from Booklist, The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books, The Horn Book, Kirkus, Publishers Weekly, and School Library Journal should help ensure that you aren’t overlooking something outstanding.

So far this year, 807 books have received 1307 stars. The publications starring each title are noted at the end of the citations.
Please remember: starred reviews are counted only when they have been officially published by the review magazines. Often authors and publicists send me emails about books they know will be starred in upcoming issues; please only send me corrections if the review date has passed and the magazine or web review has already appeared to the public. Publishers, please alert me to any oversights at ebluemle at publishersweekly.com, including the review sources and dates for the starred reviews. Thanks! Please do NOT send stars that have not yet been officially published yet, or VOYA stars. (I will post a separate list of VOYA “perfect ten” scores for 2013 in December.) I am having a little trouble with the SLJ search functionality, so please check your SLJ stars especially carefully.
This is an insanely detail-laden process, and as careful as I try to be, there may be oversights here and there. If you want the cleanest version of this list, check back a week or two after each update, when I’ll have been alerted to anything that needs fixing.
Finally, if you are purchasing books inspired by this list, please strongly consider using an independent bookstore. You can find online indies through www.indiebound.org. An independent bookseller (me) compiled this list on behalf of everyone — booksellers, librarians, teachers, parents (and grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins) who lives, loves, and works hard in the service of books and children. Thank you!
