Some forty essays on children's books from the vast wealth of material published in books and journals during the nineteenth century. The essays have been chosen to illustrate trends and developments in the field as seen by critics of the time, and as examples of revealing contemporary comment on books, writers and artists of the day. The contributors range from eminent literary figures, such as Thackeray and Conrad, to more obscure authors whose views deserve revival. Some of the essays are well-known but not easily accessible, among them Ruskin on Kate Greenaway and Dickens on fairy stories. The essays cover the full range of children's books, from fairy tales to poetry and from illustration to adventure stories. And essays on whether children need a special literature at all, and on the art of writing for children, indicate that the preoccupations of critics of our day were shared by their nineteenth century predecessors.
