Mock Newbery 2026 discussion

When the Newbery committee votes for a book they list their top three choices.

"Each committee member votes for three books, with four points assigned to first choice, three points to second choice, and two points to third choice."

Points get tallied, some rise in points while other books drop from the radar. I would like to do two rounds to arrive at our winner and honors. It's imperfect to vote online, but I would like to give it a whirl.

So list your top three (and only three) books in order of importance and we will tally the points. Happy Voting!

This thread will close on Friday, January 13th at 8:00 a.m. eastern time.

This is our final list. Please choose your top three from this selection of Newbery contenders.
