The 2013 Caldecott Medal winner Announced January 28
This Is Not My Hat, written and illustrated by Jon Klassen
In this darkly humorous tale, a tiny fish knows it’s wrong to steal a hat. It fits him just right. But the big fish wants his hat back. Klassen’s controlled palette, opposing narratives and subtle cues compel readers to follow the fish and imagine the consequence.
The Caldecott Medal is awarded annually by the Association for Library Service to Children, a division of the American Library Association, to the artist of the most distinguished American picture book for children.
Kiera Parrott of the Darien Library was a member of the 2013 Caldecott Medal Committee.
