**What's with New York and why does it seem that everytime I try to search for Children's Books, I am directed to it?
After posting NYPL's notable books of 2010, here is another list of Notable Children's Books of 2010. This time, it is published by The New York Times in their Sunday Book Review dated December 3, 2010.
Some titles that you may be familiar with:
 |
| The Little Prince, illustrated |
Originally written by Antoine De Saint-Exupery, this childhood classic about one's philosophy and ideals in life is adapted and illustrated by Joan Sfar through a graphic novel. I personally love this book because it seems easier to digest than the original one but nevertheless, both books are of great adventures and learning.

| Mockingjay |
The third book in the Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins. She definitely created another world. After finishing the second book, Catching Fire, I suddenly wanted to be a part of the game, the Quarter Quell in particular, where Victors compete with each other. But that would be impossible since I am not a Hunger Games' Victor and that there really is no Hunger Games. You wouldn't dare to wish. But I wish I could look like someone from the Capitol -- Lady Gaga-like. Ha Ha!
And oh yeah! Suzanne Collins is among the 15 Entertainers of the Year by Entertainment Weekly.
