The Caldecott Award

The Biggest Bear
The Biggest Bear won the Caldecott Award in 1953.
I think the authors purpose is to entertain kids of all ages.
I think that The Biggest Bear won the Caldecott award because it has great illustrations and its a great mix between a adventure book and a comedy book but over it just a entertaining book.
