It’s Caldecott Fever!! This week Kindergarten got to hear a classic Caldecott Award-winner: Joseph Had a Little Overcoat by Simms Taback.
Students could tell why this book is Caldecott material immediately because of its unique illustrations and cut-out method.
Taback’s style of mixing real photographs in with his illustrations led to a great conversation about how sometimes fiction books have real pictures and non-fiction books have drawings.
