Some of the Caldecott story lines are actually really good.
And it is for illustrations, and however, plot.
The Newbery is for older students and for novels. the Caldecott is for
picture books.
I have done a couple that had actually great plots.
So... I think it is.
A lot of these stories are classics, I read them in classes when I was
younger and got a lot out of them without being able to see the pictures.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Caldecott Medal Winners
The Caldecott Medal is awarded " the artist who had
created the most distinguished picture book of the
year." In some cases, I discovered as I did some
research to be sure I was correct, a book is nominated
for both the Caldecott and the Newbery, and then the
committees decide inder whch category to place it.
Since it is the illustrations and not the story for
which the book wins the award, and illustrations can
only be described and not, as far as I know, actually
included in books in the bookshare collection, is it
really worthwhile to make a special effort to have
them in the collection?
