Last week, we celebrated the 13th Annual Carle Honors in New York City. I was delighted to be there with this year's wonderful honorees! And it was a lot of fun to introduce the Funkrust Brass band and listen to their magnificent music surrounding us all and making our hearts light up!

Thank you to the band and to the Museum staff who make it all happen every year.


Here are this year's honorees, from left to right, Lynn Caponera and Dona Ann McAdams from the Sendak Fellowship & Workshop, Dr. Rudine Sims Bishop, Paul O. Zelinsky, and Elena Pasoli from the Bologna Children's Book Fair. Congratulations to all!
