Picture book reading idea of the day
A picture book is awarded with the Caldecott Medal each year. Why not read some wonderful, award-winning picture books to your children from the present and back through their parents and grandparents' generation.
You can check these out at your local library. Some libraries even offer online catalog services where you just search for each title, and request the books online.

Their list is grouped by younger readers, middle readers, and older readers.
