I was thrilled to see that Memoirs of a Goldfish by Devin Scillian won the Ladybug Picture Book Award for 2011. Each year a list of 10 nominees is chosen by librarians, and preschoolers to third graders get to vote on their favorite. I usually read through the nominated books in order to help me pick books for the kids on my holiday list. I really enjoyed several on the list--such as Ugly Pie, Hibernation Station, and The Cow Loves Cookies--but Memoirs of a Goldfish was my favorite, as well as my 4 year old sons. The book is charming, funny, and has nice message to boot!
