The Best Illustrated Children’s Books of 2018
The New York Times has released the 2018 list of Best Illustrated Children's Books. It's a list that features a rich variety in subject matter and illustration style. Find copies of these excellent picture books at local libraries and bookstores.
Since 1952, we’ve convened a rotating annual panel of three expert judges, who consider every illustrated children’s book published that year in the United States. They select the winners purely on the basis of artistic merit. The judges this time were Leonard Marcus, a children’s literature historian and critic; Jenny Rosenoff, a children’s librarian at the New York Public Library; and Bryan Collier, the author and illustrator of many acclaimed picture books and a past winner of the award.
