Journey written and illustrated by Aaron Becker. This book is just too good not to win.
Caldecott Honor:
Mr. Tiger Goes Wild written and illustrated by Peter Brown. I could see this book winning it all by flip-flopping with Journey, but think it deserves an Honor.
Mr. Wuffles illustrated by David Wiesner. His wordless books are always amazing and he consistently deserves a medal.
Moon Day written and illustrated by Adam Rex. He deserves to finally get the sticker on his book. His illustrations are amazing as always and since this is a quieter, less humor-filled book I think he has a chance.
Wild Cards:
