This week we continue the OPS Picture Book Awards by spotlighting another book that is up for consideration, Your Place In The Universe by Jason Chin. Jason is an author/illustrator of nonfiction picture books who has won numerous accolades for his work including the Sibert Medal and a Caldecott Honor Book award among others.
In Your Place In The Universe, Jason takes a complex subject, the universe, and through the use of engaging text and illustrations makes it accessible and easy to understand for the reader. In the video below, Jason explains the process he uses to illustrate a fact.
Your Place In The Universe is one of the five picture books our OPS students will be reading, analyzing, and considering for three OPS Picture Book Awards: Best Message, Best Illustrations, and Best Overall Picture Book. Voting will take place by homeroom class on Wednesday, March 3rd, and the winning book(s) will be announced on Friday, March 5th.
