The Best in Children's Books: The University of Chicago Guide to Children's Literature, 1966-72 Hardcover - 1973

by Zena Sutherland (Editor)


From the rear cover

When the Center for Children's Books was established at the University of Chicago in 1945 one of its goals in setting up a collection of trade books written for children was the evaluation and analysis of books in terms of uses, appeals, and literary quality. The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, which grew out of a memorandum that circulated within the Graduate School of Education, now is sponsored by the Graduate Library School and has international circulation.
