About This Item
New York: Schocken Books Book. Good. Hardcover. (1974), 189pp, with an appendix which includes: The Will-o'-the-Wisp is in the Town by Hans Andersen; List of authors; Index. Ex-lib with usual markings, else G. From the preface: "The French have had a reputation for rather poor children's literature. How do they manage to write so effectively and persuasively on the subject? After reading and rereading Isabelle Jan and Paul Hazard, I have come to the conclusion that we in the United States should continue with our good production of children's books and, for a time at least, leave to the French a genre in which they excel - literary criticism, even on the subject of children's literature.".
