给孩子读凯迪克童书吧!

美国凯迪克大奖(The Caldecott Medal)创自1938年，以英国杰出的童书插画家Randolph Caldecott为名设立。每年由美国图书馆协会从上一年美国出版的数万本童书中，选出一名首奖和三名杰作，并颁发奖章。凡是得奖作品，封面上都贴有Caldecott先生的著名插画“骑马的约翰”奖牌贴纸，金色为首奖，银色为杰作。凯迪克大奖代表童书界的至高荣誉，可谓图画书的“奥斯卡”奖。

* 何谓一本杰出的儿童图画书? 评审团必须考虑：是否使用优秀的艺术技巧?图画是否能巧妙完整呈现出此书的故事、主题或概念?图画的风格是否非常适合此书的故事、主题或概念?透过图画，是否能完整传递出书中的故事情节、角色、气氛与讯息?

评审团必须以儿童的理解力为前提，考虑该书是否有杰出的表现。

* 参选的书籍，其型式除了必须是适用于图画书的同时，还必须为独立的个体，不需靠别的媒体呈现其趣味(例如播放声音或影片的设备)。

* 每一本参选的书都被视为一本儿童图画书。评审团评选的重点主要在于该书的插图，但是当这本书其它构成部份十分杰出时，这些部份(如文本、书籍整体设计等)也会被列入考虑。
