The Carnival of Children's Literature is up at Big A, Little a. The theme is gift books--what books to buy for the holidays, how to choose a book, etc.
AND
The December edition of the Bookworms Carnival is up at A Striped Armchair. The theme is nonfiction.
By the way...
I am hosting the 7th edition of the Bookworms Carnival. I will host it at my blog, Reading with Becky.
The theme for January 2008 is
Best Books of 2007
There are several options. You could create your own "best of" list of books you've read and loved in the past year. You might want to make this a list with notes or commentary. But that isn't a requirement necessarily. Or you could submit a book review of the book you think is THE BEST of the year. Your list can be general or specific. Your focus can be looking at all books or just books about pirates in space fighting spiders. :)
Your "best-of" list can include any book that you read for the first time in the year of 2007. It doesn't have to be just the books with the 2007 release date. Though if that's what you want to do, that's fine too.
The deadline for submission is January 11th.
Submissions for this carnival are by email. Email me at laney_po AT yahoo DOT com. Please use the word Bookworms AND/OR the word Carnival in your subject line. Thank you!

Carnival, Texas Humor, and Sandwiches
Don't miss the fourteenth carnival of children's literature at ChickenSpaghetti. The theme is fiesta...the setting...Texas.
U R A Texan If:
1. You can properly pronounce Corsicana, Palestine, Decatur, Wichita Falls, San Antonio, Burnet, Boerne, Nacogdoches, Mexia, Waco, Amarillo , and Waxahachie.
2. A tornado warning siren is your signal to go out in the yard and look for a funnel.
3. You've ever had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.
4. You know that the true value of a parking space is not determined by the distance to the door, but by the availability of shade.
5. Stores don't have bags, they have sacks.
6. You see people wear bib overalls at funerals.
7. You measure distance in minutes.
8. Little Smokies are something you serve only for special occasions.
9. You go to the lake because you think it is like going to the ocean.
10. You listen to the weather forecast before picking out an outfit
11. You know cow-pies are not made of beef.
12. Someone you know has used a football schedule to plan their wedding date.
13. You have known someone who has had a belt buckle bigger than your fist.
14. You aren't surprised to find movie rental, ammunition, and bait all in the same store.
15. Your "place at the lake" has wheels under it.
16. A Mercedes Benz is not a status symbol; a Ford F350 4x4 is.
17. You know everything goes better with Ranch dressin'.
18. You learned how to shoot a gun before you learned how to multiply.
19. You actually understand this and you are "fixin' to" send it to your friends.
20. Finally, you are 100% Texan if you have ever heard this conversation:
"You wanna coke?" "Yeah."
"What kind?" "Dr. Pepper!"
