Probably at least once a week, I think about how deserves a more than anyone I can think of, but for some inexplicable reason it never happens. The fact that he hasn’t received one deeply undermines the credibility of the ‘s awards, imho!

Randolph Caldecott gave nursery rhymes both whimsy & history at once. His art helped invent the picture book (for all classes of children), & the Caldecott Medal is named for him. Here are some fun ones he did. ☺️📚💕

If you were going to illustrate a dish running away with a spoon, Randolph Caldecott was your man (1846-86). He died so young, but he helped invent the picture book for children as we know it. I love his historic & rural English scenes. ☺️❤️
