I like your Joanna Russ fairy. I'm not saying those other books aren't important and wonderful, but. And, you know, Jellicoe Road is just about family and love and grief, as is Saving Francesca. Looking for Alaska, which isn't even by a woman.

The Printz is great at finding high-quality books that are about Issues, and that's wonderful. But those aren't the only books, and that's not its only mission.
