Caldecott Honor Book
This is the classic story of the “ugly duckling” by Hans Christian Anderson, adapted and illustrated by Jerry Pinckney. I don’t believe I have ever read the original version of this story, but I really do love this version. I think the artwork id a beautiful accompaniment to a wonderful story. The drawings are so clever and detailed, I have to pause at each page to be sure that I catch everything there, and they are all worth the extra few minutes. I can see why this book was chosen as a Caldecott Honor Book.
