First and foremost, I have so many books that I would actually like to nominate for this title such as Stephanie Myer's Eclipse but that would be my personal opinion. I would like to say that the list of finalists still has not been released since they just finished picking up nominees. One of the nominees for 2007 was Touching Snow by M. Sindy Felin. It is a story about a family that has immigrated from Haiti and struggles with family inter conflicts. Karina has a stepfather that does not want to lose control of his wife and stepdaughters so he uses excessive force. Karina longs for her independence and education in America. It is a touching story that takes the reader on the life experiences of Karina and her family struggling to survive new America and their stepfather.
