Today was the day!
Twenty Two participants attended our annual Mock Caldecott Program this morning at the Main Library. We enjoyed some informational presentations and an extensive book discussion which led to a suspenseful bout of voting. 
Our choice for Caldecott Award Winner was And Then It’s Spring illustrated by Erin Stead.
Honor books included: Extra Yarn, illustrated by Jon Klassen, Step Gently Out, illustrated by Rick Lieder, and More, illustrated by Brian Lies.
This year’s official announcement of the 2013 Caldecott Award winner happens on Monday, January 28th at 11:00 EST. We’ll be sure to let you know how our predictions stacked up against the official committee vote.
