walk the exhibits space and just see so many great books. I’m not as current with what’s happening in children’s lit since I left teaching, and I really miss it. I love being a full time, working writer, but…I love children’s books, and I love sharing them with kids. I was at ALA on Sunday, and then Monday morning they held the <a href="http://www.ala.org/news/press-releases/2019/01/american-library-association-announces-2019-youth-media-award-winners">ALA Youth Media Awards</a>, where they announce all the big winners in kidlit. This is what I watch every year for the announcement of the Newbery and <a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/2017/02/06/rep-john-lewis-and-this-years-caldecotts/">Caldecott books</a>, and then I immediately buy all of the Caldecotts for H’s collection–we have them all for every year of her life, plus the year I was pregnant (and lots of other years because I just love Caldecott books). I also picked up a lot of the other award winners announced on Monday, and by Tuesday they’d all arrived.</p> <p><a href="https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/02/weve-got-the-2019-caldecotts-and-lots-of-other-award-winners/" class="more-link">Read more on We’ve Got the 2019 Caldecotts (And Lots of Other Award Winners)…</a></p> </div> </div>  <div class="bar"> <div class="share">  <a class="share-twitter" onclick="window.open('http://twitter.com/home?status=We’ve Got the 2019 Caldecotts (And Lots of Other Award Winners) - https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/02/weve-got-the-2019-caldecotts-and-lots-of-other-award-winners/','twitter','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=We’ve Got the 2019 Caldecotts (And Lots of Other Award Winners) - https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/02/weve-got-the-2019-caldecotts-and-lots-of-other-award-winners/" title="We’ve Got the 2019 Caldecotts (And Lots of Other Award Winners)" target="blank"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a>  <a class="share-facebook" onclick="window.open('http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/02/weve-got-the-2019-caldecotts-and-lots-of-other-award-winners/','facebook','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;" href="http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/02/weve-got-the-2019-caldecotts-and-lots-of-other-award-winners/" title="We’ve Got the 2019 Caldecotts (And Lots of Other Award Winners)" target="blank"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a> <a class="share-google" href="https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/02/weve-got-the-2019-caldecotts-and-lots-of-other-award-winners/" onclick="window.open('https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/02/weve-got-the-2019-caldecotts-and-lots-of-other-award-winners/','gplusshare','width=450,height=300,left='+(screen.availWidth/2-375)+',top='+(screen.availHeight/2-150)+'');return false;"><i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i></a> <a onClick="MyWindow=window.open('http://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.jackiereeve.com/2019/02/02/weve-got-the-2019-caldecotts-and-lots-of-other-award-winners/&media=https://www.jackiereeve.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/DSC07566_edited-1.jpg&description=We’ve Got the 2019 Caldecotts (And Lots of Other Award Winners)','MyWindow','width=600,height=400');
