Madeline by Ludwig Bemelmans

4.0

Caldecott Honor 1940 - I never read Madeline as a child. Not sure why but never did. And I don't think I really read it even when I was teaching preschool. So I guess I come to it with a new eye. Amazingly for something written in 1939, it actually seems more like a children's book than many of the other honor books from that time period.
