Let the season of “Best” begin.

The 2014 edition of the New York Times Best Illustrated Children’s Books has been announced, and it’s a great group.

I went three for ten in my predictions from earlier in the year.

Let’s have a look at the winners:

DRAW! Written and illustrated by Raúl Colón | A Paula Wiseman Book/Simon & Schuster

SHACKLETON’S JOURNEY Written and illustrated by William Grill | Flying Eye Books

HAITI, MY COUNTRY Poems by Haitian Schoolchildren lllustrated by Roge | Fifth House Publishers

THE PILOT AND THE LITTLE PRINCE The Life of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Written and illustrated by Peter Sis | Frances Foster Books/Farrar, Straus & Giroux

It never fails that there are some unexpected titles on the list. In my predictions, I included a couple obscure picks, but it turns out my less obscure picks ended up being spot on.

What stands out to you?
