Esther Forbes received this prize, during the early part of May. for her book JOHNNY TRE MAIN.

The Caldecot award is made to the artist whose illustrations are outstanding MANY MOONS s a delightful and fanciful ale wit ten by James Tiurber Tie stor-' is equally as amusing as the illu strations by Lois Slobodkin. The princess wishes for the moon and nothing will make her well until she has the moon about her neck on a chain. Tie Court jester solves the problem by asking the princess a few questions. She says the moon is only as big as her thumbnail, because she can completely hide the moon when she hold her thumbnail in the right position She is sure it is made of pure gold. Tie jester goes to the goldsmith and when the latter has finished with the jester's instructions, he is told that he has jus' made the moon. The whole court is terribly con cerned. however, when the moon shines into the room of the prin cess as usual. The jester finds her undisturbed, and asks her how she thinks the moon could possi bly appear in the usual place, even while she wears it about her neck. "That is easy, silly", says she " When I lose a tooth, a new one grows in Its place, doesn't if" She continued. "When the Roral Gardner cuts the flowers in the garden, other flowers come to take their place " "I should have thought of that", answers the jester." for it is the same way with the daylight". "And it is the same with the moon", joined the prince>< "I guess it is the same with everything." I can say this without being im modest. because neither of them was I.

In the middle of the night Mil around to rende70us. Can't even show a light Find their way around in the darkness And land upon the shore. Through bombs discharge their cargi. Then go right back out for more. Bringing n the first wave ' Doesn't ei d the job. For the iriops upon the beach Can't live wi:hout the gob. He brings n reinforcements And every thing they use His .fob is full of danger But he never makes the news. For when 'he beach is taken And the ra iio starts to tell You'll hear of Marines and soldier * And how ley went through liell. You'll thri 1 to front page stories j of their h role job ? l But you'll never hear a word ; Of the po* r Amphibious gob. And when this war is over. And he's 1 ack in civvie life.
