Caldecott Read-In scheduled Saturday, January 19
The Toledo-Lucas County Public Library invites adults to our annual Caldecott Read-In to see the best picture books for children all in one place. Help us choose the local Caldecott winner while comparing favorites and meeting others interested in book design and stories for children beginning at 9 a.m. on Saturday, January 19 in the Huntington Meeting Room at Main Library, 325 Michigan St.
Help choose the local Caldecott winner and see how the Toledo-Lucas County Public Library’s selection compares with the actual Caldecott winner scheduled to be announced later this month at the American Library Association (ALA) mid-winter conference in Seattle.
This annual local Library event, now in its 39th year, is designed for adults interested in book design and stories for children.
See the best in children’s picture books from 2012 all in one location! Come out to compare favorites with other adults. The Caldecott Medal was named in honor of nineteenth-century English illustrator Randolph Caldecott. The ALA has awarded the Medal annually since 1938 through its Association for Library Service to Children to the artist of the most distinguished American picture book for children.
A potluck lunch is planned. Participants are encouraged to bring a salad or dessert to share, and your own table service. Beverages will be provided. Complimentary underground parking – enter off Adams Street.
