Tim Federle, my friend and author of the award-winning book, Better Nate Than Ever, and its newly released sequel, Five, Six, Seven Nate, came to SFDS for a full day on Friday, January 30, 2014. It was a magical experience for students and teachers.
The 2014 Caldecott Award Committee announced this year's winners on Monday, January 27, 2014. SFDS student had their own opinions and voted in a mock Caldecott. SFDS students chose The Day the Crayons Quit by Drew Daywalt as the mock winner and were disappointed that it didn't make the offical Caldecott list. One student said, "It's because grown-ups picked the Caldecott and don't always understand what we really like." Other titles that made the top three were on the offical list: Journey, Mr. Wuffles! and Locomotive.
