Ten Ways to Hear Snow was published October 13th 2020 and consequently would not be eligible for the 2022 Caldecott award. Please remove from the list."The Medal shall be awarded annually to the artist of the most distinguished American picture book for children published by an American publisher in the United States in English during the preceding year."
Dung Ho, the illustrator of Eyes That Kiss in the Corners, currently lives and works in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, making her ineligible for the Caldecott award. Please remove this book from the list."The award is restricted to artists who are citizens or residents of the United States."
Vali Mintzi, the illustrator of Osnat and Her Dove: The True Story of the World's First Female Rabbi, lives in Jerusalem and would not be eligible for the Caldecott. Please remove this book from the list."The award is restricted to artists who are citizens or residents of the United States."
Per Stacy's request, I removed Ten Ways to Hear Snow, Eyes That Kiss in the Corners, and Osnat and Her Dove.

I wondered why I didn't see "The Midnight Fair" on many Caldecott potential lists. That makes sense. Sad because it is one of the most beautifully illustrated books I've seen in a long time.
