This Memorial Day I will be in a beach chair beside beautiful Lake Superior.   I plan to catch up on my reading.  Some of the books on my list include Lisa Kleypas' Sugar Daddy and Blue-Eyed Devil.  These are delicious contemporary romance novels.  So, with my mind on great books and a long holiday weekend, I decided to list some award-winning children
