In addition to evaluating the best films, the end (or beginning) of the year gives us occasion to look at the best children's books of 2008. (Seen above is Marion Bataille's brilliant pop-up book ABC3D, perhaps the best working of the alphabet since Chicka Chicka Boom Boom.)
The New York Times published their list of books clear back in November, and it's certainly worth a look, ranging from young adult novels about terrorism to, well, pop-up books about the alphabet. Always delving into multimedia, they now evidently do a slide show as well.
Here's an equally comprehensive list from Booklist Online. You can also garner opinions from the ALA, the School Library Journal, and the Christian Science Monitor. Obviously there's great stuff coming out in '09, but even skimming through these shows me I've a lot of catching up to do. Happy reading.
