TRANSCRIPT
The Caldecott Medal Awarded annually by the Association for Library Service to Children, The American Library Association. The first Caldecott Medal was awarded in 1938 to the artist of the most distinguished American picture book for children published in the United States during the preceding year. It was donated by Frederic G. Melcher (1879-1963), whose family continues to donate the award each year. The name of Randolph Caldecott, famous English illustrator of books for children, was chosen for the medal because his work best represented “the joyousness of picture books as well as their beauty.”
