 * Doll People Illustrator Wins Caldecott Medal
 * Brian Selznick, illustrator of Ann M. Martin's books The Doll People and The Meanest Doll in the World, has won the Caldecott Medal for his book The Invention of Hugo Cabret. The Caldecott is awarded annually by the American Library Association "to the artist of the most distinguished American Picture Book for Children published in the United States during the preceding year." Selznick previously received the Caldecott Honor, a citation for runners-up for the Caldecott Medal, in 2002 for his illustrations of The Dinosaurs of Waterhouse Hawkins by Barbara Kerley. Selznick told Publishers Weekly that his next plans included finishing the illustrations for the third Doll People installment.
