Best Picture Books of 2012

Well, I'm late this year because it's taken a long time to get my hands on all the books I wanted to read before constructing a list. In fact, there are still four I'm on the waiting list for, and there are eight books not available my libraries. So there is a slight possibility that I will have to amend this list.
Here are the Top 10:
