Join film festival founder James Kennedy (author of The Order of Odd-Fish) and Keir Graff (author of Minerva Keen's Detective Club and more) as they present the best 90-Second Newbery movies we've received this year, from Chicago and around the country.

The 90-Second Newbery is an annual film festival in which kid filmmakers create short movies that tell the entire stories of Newbery-winning books in about 90 seconds. These movies often have a creative twist—think Charlotte’s Web in the style of a horror movie or The Tale of Despereaux reimagined as a musical.
