# New York Times “Notable Children’s Books of 2012”

The New York Times list of best children’s books are out.  I am a fan of the young adult genre, but I don’t read much of middle grade or picture books.  That being said, I have not read a single one of these books.  John Green is on the list, and I have read two of his books in the past couple weeks, but not his newest.

Also a friend of mine from college’s husband is the author of the picture book King Arthur’s Very Great Grandson, but I have not read that either.

[Here is the full list.](http://www.nytimes.com/2012/12/02/books/review/notable-childrens-books-of-2012.html?_r=0)
