I read nightly to my five year old and I am reading her Caldecott medal winning books or Caldecott Honor books.
We recently read the Knight Owl by Christopher Denise. The illustrations are perfect – an owl who wants to be a Knight who is perservering, clever and strong. The reveal in the section where he smartly escapes and befriends the dragon is so humorous. We borrow 10-12 books from the library every week and she held on to this one for a while . We read it multiple times over multiple weeks. We definitely recommend it.
