  • The Caldecott Medal 2021
    Caldecott Medal Books oppl.org/kids-lists The Caldecott Medal is awarded annually by the Association for Library Service to Children. It is given to the illustrator of the most distinguished American picture book published the preceding year. The name of Randolph Caldecott, an English illustrator of books for children, was chosen for the medal because his work best represented the “joyousness of picture books as well as their beauty.” The horseman on the medal is taken from one of Caldecott’s illustrations for “The Diverting History of John Gilpin” (1878). The medal was originally donated by publisher Frederic G. Melcher (1879–1963), and is now donated by his son, Daniel. 1939 Mei Li Handforth 1972 One Fine Day Hogrogian 1940 Abraham Lincoln d’Aulaire 1973 The Funny Little Woman Lent 1941 They Were Strong and Good Lawson 1974 Duffy and the Devil Zemach 1942 Make Way for Ducklings McCloskey 1975 Arrow to the Sun McDermott 1943 The Little House Burton 1976 Why Mosquitoes Buzz in 1944 Many Moons Slobodkin People’s Ears Dillon 1945 Prayer for a Child Jones 1977 Ashanti to Zulu: 1946 The Rooster Crows Petersham African Traditions Dillon 1947 The Little Island Weisgard 1978 Noah’s Ark Spier 1948 White Snow, Bright Snow Duvoisin 1979 Girl Who Loved Wild Horses Goble 1949 The Big Snow Hader 1980 Ox-Cart Man Cooney 1950 Song of the Swallows Politi 1981 Fables Lobel 1951 The Egg Tree Milhous 1982 Jumanji Van Allsburg 1952 Finders Keepers Mordvinoff 1983 Shadow Brown 1953 The Biggest Bear Ward 1984 The Glorious Flight Provensen 1954 Madeline’s Rescue

  • Wordless Picture Books
    Wordless Picture Books If you want your kids to be good readers, why share wordless picture books? Isn’t reading all about letters and words? Reading is: to inspect and apprehend the meaning of writing or other signs or characters. So, reading a book means gaining meaning from words and from pictures. Here are some key reading skills kids build when they read wordless books: 1. Comprehension, 2. Print Concepts, 3. Sequencing, 4. Inferring, 5. Predicting and 6. Vocabulary (studies have shown parents use more complex language when sharing a wordless book with their child than when reading a book with words). Caldecott J CALD PIN The Lion & the Mouse, Jerry Pinkney In this wordless retelling of an Aesop fable set in the African Serengeti, an adventuresome mouse proves that even small creatures are capable of great deeds when she rescues the King of the Jungle. J CALD RAS A Ball for Daisy, Christopher Raschka A wordless picture book about all the fun a dog can have with her ball. J CALD WIE Flotsam, David Wiesner When a young boy discovers a camera on the beach and develops the film, he finds with his microscope many layers of pictures within the photographs. J CALD WIE Tuesday, David Wiesner Frogs rise on their lily pads, float through the air, and explore the nearby houses in this book without words.
