1945 Caldecott
Field, Rachel. Prayer for a Child. New York: Macmillan, 1944. 

Here is a simple, beautiful prayer illustrated with soft lines and tender colors. The pictures will draw you in, and the words will remind you to be thankful for simple comforts we sometimes take for granted—milk, bread, a soft bed, toys, shoes, a painted chair, lamplight, and “the hands that never tire in their loving care..”  (AB)
