What should a child read first, and why Mother Goose before everything else? Orton Lowe's guide walks parents and teachers through children's literature year by year, from Little Bo-peep on up. Practical, opinionated, and stuffed with usable lists. A map of the nursery bookshelf, drawn by a true believer.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
