Transcript Caldecott Award

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.
