I have found that great illustrators are often great authors as well. Most of the people listed here are illustrators and authors. When that is not the case, the author is noted in parenthesis. I have listed titles that I think would be good reading material for emerging readers. Most are between a 2nd and 4th grade reading level. I hope you find someone new to love or someone old to revisit on this list!
