Students Prepare to Vote for the Best Picture Book of the Year

With the chill of winter comes an exciting time in the library: preparation for the yearly announcement of the prestigious Caldecott Award. This award is given by the American Library Association for the most distinguished illustrations in a picture book. Though the real Caldecott Committee will make their announcement on Monday, February 12th, 2018, First Program students are hard at work evaluating different picture books to see which they believe most deserves the award. Students will be participating in their own vote in the first week of February to see which books will be adorned with the Dalton Medal.
