I sincerely appreciate the help of Dr. Connie McDonald, who stepped in to be my chair at the last minute and provided me with encouraging feedback on each of my drafts. I would also like to thank Dr. Michelle Goodwin for offering me wise suggestions which helped me to improve the quality of my work. Also, I am grateful to Mrs. Janice DeLong, my Children’s Literature professor who suggested the topic of Caldecott books; she truly inspired me to love these amazing picture books.
