They have great artistic merit and are beautifully designed, but I reckon only time will tell which books will cross over to other lists of picture books most loved by children. Sophie Blackall’s illustrations are winning.Īll the honorees this year are alluring, especially to the adult eye-perhaps due to a retro or timeless quality some of the illustrations have. How could it not? The cover illustration features a sweet smiling face half obscured by an enormous, bright red sucker. Have you looked over The New York Times Book Review’s list of Best Illustrated Children’s Books of 2010? I imagine that if you spread all ten books on a table and let the kids each choose a book, there might be a fight over Big Red Lollipop.
