Caldecott Honor Books
In addition to the Caldecott Medal-winning book, the awards committees also cited other picture books for children each year as "worthy of attention." These books were initially referred to as "runners-up" for the Caldecott Medal, but in 1971 that term was retroactively changed to "Caldecott Honor Books."
