When
You are invited to a Mock Caldecott Award Competition to decide on our own Caldecott Medal award winner for the most distinguished artist of an American picturebook. Join us for an enjoyable time of books, conversation and food as we read, talk and eat.
RSVP below.
Join us to:
• Browse previous medal winners based on the selection criteria
• Read a set of books from 2025 that are being considered for the 2025 award
• Vote for the best picturebook published in 2025 using the Caldecott voting process
• Decide how many honor books to select
Enjoy refreshments as we read and debate what is the most distinguished picturebook for this year.
The American Library Association will announce the awards in a live streaming on January 26, 2026, so we can compare our decisions with the official award-winners.
Please RSVP.
