How do you put the right book into a child's hands? Librarians argued it for decades, and Alice Hazeltine collected their best answers: essays on boys' and girls' reading, story hours, and how children's libraries grew from Hartford outward. A foundational sourcebook on raising readers. For the grown-up who curates the shelf.

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.
