Marti,
I suggest collecting all the Caldicott and Newbury Award winners. I think there
book published with this information. We've just begun to start this process as
well. Children's librarians are the best source of info on this subject. BH Publ
for instance, has tons of reference books about children's books and their
illustrators.
