This is a list of award winning awesome books normally when I post a list of awesome books I brag about how many of them I have read. This list however leaves me feeling very American with my apparent lack of British books. So this is more of a to do list. Since everybody is always raving about Newbury medal winners I thought, I would point out other countries authors and since I'm not bilingual that's England. The list is barrowed from Wikipedia
