We’ve come to the end of the road, folks. Did I read every Caldecott winner in one day as I set out to do? That’s a negative. But at least now I can say for certain I’ve read ’em all.

1997: Golem by David Wisniewski (Clarion)

1998: Rapunzel by Paul O. Zelinsky (Dutton)

1999: Snowflake Bentley, Illustrated by Mary Azarian ; text by Jacqueline Briggs Martin (Houghton)

2000: Joseph Had a Little Overcoat by Simms Taback (Viking)

2001: So You Want to Be President? Illustrated by David Small; text by Judith St. George (Philomel Books)

2002: The Three Pigs by David Wiesner (Clarion/Houghton Mifflin)

2003: My Friend Rabbit by Eric Rohmann (Roaring Brook Press/Millbrook Press)

2004: The Man Who Walked Between the Towers by Mordicai Gerstein (Roaring Brook Press/Millbrook Press)

2005: Kitten’s First Full Moon by Kevin Henkes (Greenwillow Books/HarperCollinsPublishers)

2006: The Hello, Goodbye Window Illustrated by Chris Raschka, written by Norton Juster (Michael di Capua/Hyperion)

2007: Flotsam by David Wiesner  (Clarion)

2008: The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick (Scholastic Press, an imprint of Scholastic)
