Hi Susan,

Thank you for the much anticipated list!!!

I have a question about *Cuckoo Song*.  It says on the Ingram ipage that it
was originally published in Great Britain in 2014.  Does it qualify for the
Printz?  I'll hit "reply all", since there may be others with the same
question.

The Jefferson County Library will bring a group of teens and a librarian or
two to participate in the event.  I'll send you names and contacts later
 this week.

Thanks.
Lorene
