What a beautiful year for picture book design! As always, it's so hard to choose my favorite fifteen picture book designs from the year but I think the ones represented here are some of the most beautiful, from the endpapers to the casewraps to the interiors.
I have one last round of crushes coming this Saturday, and I'll see you in the new year!
