I've been slowly making my way through the Caldecott winners, and came upon this little treasure.. The Biggest Bear by Lynd Ward. I warn you that this book does involve a child carrying a large gun and attempting to shoot innocent bears, but somehow I still find it all very charming. Winner of the Caldecott in 1953, and deservedly so.. the illustrations are lovely.
