2018 Books from Caldecott Medal/Honor Winners

March 5, 2018 by Travis Jonker   6 comments

2018 Caldecott

While all of the Caldecott winners this year were first timers, that’s fairly rare. Most years, a past winner or two will turn up to claim another shiny sticker.

Since that’s the case, it seems like looking at 2018 releases from past winners is a good place to spot potential 2019 winners. Oh, also, there’s likely to be some good picture books on this list.

So let’s see what there is to see.

Did I miss any? Let’s hear it in the comments.

    What a great collection! I’ve read/seen a few of these and the talent hasn’t waned. Lynn and I posted about Hello Lighthouse this afternoon…with photos of a local lighthouse I’ve climbed: http://www.booklistreader.com/2018/03/05/bookends-childrens-literature/caldecott-medalist-lights-up-new-picture-book/
