Our 2020 Mock Caldecott Results!

Over the past month, K-3rd grade students have been reading, evaluating, and comparing some of the best picture books of the year during our 2020 Mock Caldecott unit.

Last week all 455 students voted for the book they thought most deserved to win the Caldecott Medal.

And the winners of our 2020 Mock Caldecott voting are . . .
