Two YA novels debut this week: Holly Black's Ironside (McElderry) and Erin Hunter's The Sight (HarperCollins), ranking #5 and #1 respectively on this week's New York Times children's chapter book list, with Hunter also ranking a respectable #13 on USA Today's combined list.
Also belatedly added to this chart: Brian Selznick's associational YA graphic novel The Invention of Hugo Cabret (Scholastic), currently ranking #3 on the same NYT in its 13th week there.
J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, to be published in July, remains #1 on the three Amazon lists this week.
