About this book
Children's Books and Reading considers the selection of library book lists, arguing that no hard and fast rules can determine which books deserve inclusion. The appendix describes such lists as suggestive and helpful but passive, requiring personal knowledge of the recommended books to supplement their guidance. The book list names English Fairy Tales, Celtic Fairy Tales and The Red Fairy Book among its entries on children's reading.
The discussion of Maria Edgeworth identifies her collaboration with her father on Practical Education as part of an account of his influence upon her. The account of literature describes its sustaining force as something that pushes people through difficulty, rather than shielding them from impending danger.
