Arlington Students Pick Mock-Caldecott Award Winners

With the official  Caldecott announcement later this morning, we wanted to share the results from two more Arlington school groups:

Students at Key Elementary selected I Want My Hat Back by Jon Klassen as their winner.  They awarded two Caldecott honors:  Grandpa Green by Lane Smith and Perfect Square by Michael Hall.

Students at Glebe Elementary School voted overwhelmingly for Wonderstruck, by Brian Selznick. They awarded honors to Hooray for Amanda and her Alligator, by Mo Willems.

The final Mock-Caldecott Winner vote tally is:
  • Perfect Square - 1 vote
  • A Nations's Hope: The Story of Boxing Legend Joe Lewis - 1 vote
  • Heart and Soul: The Story of America and African Americans - 1 vote
  • Blackout - 2 votes
  • Hoorah for Amanda and Her Alligator - 1 vote
  • If Rocks Could Sing - 1 vote
  • I Want My Hat Back - 2 votes
  • Bone Dog - 2 votes
  • Little White Rabbit - 1 vote
  • Grandpa Green - 1 vote 
  • Wonderstruck - 1 vote
See all the mock-Caldecott winners.
