PW Best Book 2011!!!

Shhhhh-WHAT? 


This. Just. Happened. 



http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/book-news/awards-and-prizes/article/49395-pw-best-books-2011-children—s-books.html



This smart, darkly funny, and multilayered debut novel juxtaposes the disappearance of a 15-year-old boy with the possible reappearance of a woodpecker thought to be extinct. Whaley weaves numerous story lines and themes together with the confidence of a seasoned writer, resulting in a thought-provoking story about media, faith, and family.
