Description
Allen's background as a children's book writer and reviewer lends to her examination of the changing world of children's book writing and marketing since the 1800s in 100 Years Of Children's Books In America. This uses a decade-by-decade approach to trace the development of kids' books from the past century. Chronological bibliographies accompany discussions of changing language, shifting genres, and significant transitions.
