While organizing the paperback chapter books in their own bookcase at home the other week, I was looking at the cover art.   I found five novels by well-known writers whose the publishers commissioned cover illustrations by the best illustrators, whose children’s books have won multiple Caldecotts, Caldecott Honors, many other awards too numerous to record here.   Do you have a favorite?1. Chris van Allsburg

2. Paul Zelinsky

3. Trina Shart Hyman.

4. Brian Selznick

5. Edward Gorey (the only major cover designer of the five)
