Children’s Book Week is coming up—May 13 to 19—and the Children’s Choice Book Awards finalists have just been announced. Up for Author of the Year are:

• John Green for The Fault in Our Stars
• Jeff Kinney for Diary of a Wimpy Kid 7: The Third Wheel
• R.J. Palacio for Wonder
• Rick Riordan for The Heroes of Olympus
• Veronica Roth for Insurgent

Both The Fault in Our Stars and Wonder made our Readers’ Choice: Best Books of 2012 list, and we’re big fans of Jeff Kinney here on The Book Case. Which books are you (and the little ones in your life) going to vote for? Are there any books that you think were snubbed?
