Amos McGee Poster

In 2011 Caldecott Medal-winning A Sick Day for Amos McGee, zookeeper Amos McGee spends a little time each day with his friends at the zoo, running races with the tortoise, keeping the shy penguin company, and even reading bedtime stories to the owl. One day, when Amos is too sick for work, his animal friends decide it’s time they returned the favor. Amos’s friends reunite to read together on this poster to illustrate that sometimes reading is the best medicine. Special thanks to illustrator Erin E. Stead, author Philip C. Stead, and Roaring Brook Press, an imprint of Macmillan Children’s Publishing Group.
