Booklist Online: More than 130,000 book reviews for librarians, book groups, and book lovers - from the trusted experts at the American Library Association

Jack Gantos talks about his Printz Honor memoir Hole in My Life & one of the best audiobooks ever. Read more from Gantos in my interview in this Audiobooker post, where he discusses the power of audiobooks and the need for books that speak to guy readers. I was so honored that Jack wrote a personal reflection for my book Audiobooks for Youth: A Practical Guide to Sound Literature - he is one of the most inspiring advocates for children’s and young adult literacy & audiobooks. I’d love to start a grassroots movement to have Gantos named as National Ambassador of Children’s Literature!
