Juvenile & YA Nonfiction 2018 (Mock Sibert, 2019) (125 books)

Books coming out in 2018 that are nonfiction aimed at the preschool, lower grade, middle grade or young adult readers. Do NOT include fictional stories that teach a concept, folktales/fairy tales or poetry collections (except for poetry collections that provide information on nonfiction topics such as A Strange Place to Call Home by Singer). Think in terms of books eligible for the Sibert Award 2019 (though books published outside the US and by authors outside of the US are ok for this list).
