Gallery: NYT Best Illustrated Children’s Books of 2023

The New York Times announced their annual Best Illustrated Children’s Books List, and it’s full of great picks. How’d I do on my predictions?

I correctly predicted . . . one (At the Drop of a Cat).

However! If you also take into account my insanely long (and oft-ridiculed) list of other possibilities at the end of the post, you can up that number to six (At the Drop of a Cat, Rock, Rosetta, Rock! Roll, Rosetta, Roll!, We Are Starlings, The Young Teacher and the Great Serpent, Mary’s Idea, As Night Falls). But that would be cheating. So I’m calling it one.

Let’s have a look at the winners!
