The Caldecott Medal was named in honor of nineteenth-century English illustrator Randolph Caldecott. It is awarded annually by the Association for Library Service to Children, a division of the American Library Association, to the artist of the most distinguished American picture book for children.
--- Basically, the Caldecott Medal is for the best picture book of the previous year. ---
Celebrate the 75th year of the Caldecott Award by reading this year's winner- This is Not my hat by Jon Klassen.
