First Grade WebQuest

The Caldecott Award is given each year to the best illustrated book for children.

Books have been winning the Caldecott Award since 1938!

The award is named after Randolph Caldecott, an illustrator who lived over 200 years ago!

Only one book is awarded the gold medal, which is the highest honor. It is called the Caldecott Medal.

Several books win the silver medal, called the Caldecott Honor.
