We Return. We Recoup. We Recuperate.
This is as close to an approximation of my full Newbery/Caldecott Banquet outfit as you’ll be able to find. I believe many a photo was snapped but so far only Ed Spicer was able to get one online at this moment in time (thanks for the pic, Ed!). I think you can make out the six representative elements of all the 2013 Caldecott Award and Honor books here, but if you can’t I will explain. I’ll also have a more thorough recap of the event in the coming days. Consider this just a mere taste of things to come.
