And the Caldecott Winner is...
Tobin’s LE students participated in the annual mock Caldecott for 2017 picture books. Students learned how to evaluate a picture book the same way that the official Caldecott committee does, looking at three aspects of the book: how well the pictures tell the story; design of the whole book; and artistic excellence. They had 38 books to look at that had all been published in 2017 and got starred reviews. Students took this very seriously!
