Books awarded Newbery and Caldecott distinctions are often converted into a variety of formats - large print, braille, talking books, videos, filmstrips - so that all children can enjoy these new classics. This guide lists all the available media materials (commercial and public, print and non-print) derived from Newbery and Caldecott Medal and Honor Books since the awards began. Media about the authors and illustrators (interviews, for example) follow the title listings.
This is an enlarged version of the 1982 edition, updated to include the 1991 recipients. It offers the same inclusive listing of Newbery and Caldecott Medal and Honor Books, library collections with significant holdings and background readings on each of the 325 award-winning authors and illustrators.

It also includes separate listings of Newbery Medal and Honor Books; Caldecott Medal and Honor Books; collections; a background reading bibliography; and an author/illustrator/title index. It has a companion volume, Newberry and Caldecott Medal and Honor Books in Other Media, and the two books are also available as a set at a price of u72.00."
