Hi All -
I wonder if you could advise me. Each year I have a simple discussion 
with my 1st graders about copyright a la "you cannot copy someone 
else's work and claim it as your own".    I am wondering however if 
there is room in there for "honoring" someone else's work by trying to 
reproduce it yourself, so long as you do not try to pass the work off 
as your own original creation, and you do not publish it.
What I'd like to do is have the children select their favorite 
Caldecott Medal winning book and try to illustrate it's cover as a sort 
of homage to the illustrator.
Please tell me what you think.
Thank you in advance!
