It's spring and one of the books I always read is "Make Way for Duckling" by Robert McCloskey.(1941)" I always talk to the kiddos about this book and the author. He was an author and illustrator. His unique and detailed drawings are beautiful. Make Way for Ducklings was a Caldecott medal winner for its illustrations. It's perfect for writers workshop because we talk about the details in the drawings and there is no color just the beautiful drawing. In writers workshop it's funny to listen to the kiddos ask if their drawing look like Robert McCloskey drawings. When you talk about illustrating in writers workshop go to the Robert McCloskey books and you'll have Caldecott Medal winners in your class.
