Carol Goldenberg, the juror for this year’s show, studied illustration at RISD. She says about the picture book: "Remember too, that the picture book is most often the first meeting a child has with artwork of any kind, and how important it is for all artists who work with the picture book to bring to it their highest level of quality and craft."
