The Caldecott Medal



   What is the
    Caldecott Medal?
   The Caldecott Medal
    was named in honor of
    English illustrator
    Randolph Caldecott
    who lived in the
    1800’s. This is a book
    he wrote called “John
    Gilpin’s Ride.”
   The award is given out
    every year by the
    Association for Library
    Service to Children, a
    division of the American
    Library Association, to the
    artist of the most
    distinguished American
    picture book for children.
   15 Librarians are
    chosen to be on the
    Caldecott committee.
    They read hundreds
    and hundreds of books
    so they can decided
    which one is the best!
   In 1937, Rene’ Paul
    Chambellan designed
    the Caldecott Medal.
    It is a bronze medal
    with the winner’s
    name and the date
    engraved on the back.
   Some books each year
    were called “runners-
    up”. In 1971, that       “The Red Book”, by
    term was changed to      Barbara Lehman, was an
    “honor books”.           honor book in 2005.
    These medals look like
    the award except they
    are silver instead of
    bronze.
   Now, let’s talk about
    some books that have
    won the Caldecott       “The Man Who Walked
    Medal. If you would     Between the Towers”, by
    like to check one of    Mordicai Gerstein, won the
    these books out or      Caldecott Medal in 2004.
