The University of Wisconsin-Madison SLIS Children's Literature class held a Mock Caldecott with two groups of 15 people balloting from a list of 24 titles. Both groups selected *Grandpa Green* as the winner. Group 1 gave honors to *Blackout*, and Group 2 gave honors to *Me...Jane*. Three other books did well in the voting - *Say Hello to Zorro*, *Swirl by Swirl*, and * Wonderstruck*. For those who think a single honor book means the group was split, this is not true in this case. *Grandpa Green* was the clear winner in both groups. Many thanks to the folks at the CCBC for making the books available to those in the Madison area.
