Hi gang!
It is with great joy that I would like to announce the results of the 2011 O regon Library Association/Washington Library Association Mock Caldecott Awar d!
Mock Caldecott Award -
City Dog, Country Frog by Mo Willems, Illustrated by Jon J. Muth
Mock Caldecott Honor Books -
Art & Max by David Wiesner
Black Jack: The Ballad of Jack Johnson by Charles R. Smith, Jr., Illustrated by Shane W. Evans
Mama Miti: Wangari Maathai and the Trees of Kenya by Donna Jo Napoli, Illust rated by Kadir Nelson
The 2011 Mock Caldecott Workshop was held at the Multnomah County Library's Central Library (Portland, Oregon) this past Saturday. Over 40 librarians, authors, illustrators, and educators from across Oregon and Washington came to learn about the Caldecott Award and select a local mock winner.
Attendees were introduced to the Caldecott process by 2010 Caldecott Committ ee member Suzanne Harold. Barbara Head, another librarian with Multnomah Co unty Library, provided participants with an overview of Visual Thinking Stra tegies, a method of inquiry used for looking at picture books. Following a crash course in judging the art of picture books vis-а-vis the ALA Caldeco tt criteria, participants broke into small groups and discussed a list of po tential 2011 Caldecott contenders.
After a day filled with "all things picture book", participants took part in a balloting process similar to the actual process used to select the real C aldecott Award.
OLA and WLA organizers would like to thank Multnomah County Library and its librarians for presenting a wonderful workshop!
I apologize for any cross-posting.
