"Helbig and Perkins offer in one comprehensive volume information
about fiction of recognized distinction written for children:
entries give biographical data on authors, detailed plot summaries,
information about outstanding characters, memorable settings,
significant motifs. The authors, both respected critics and
university teachers of literature, have certainly performed a
service to students of children's literature in compiling all the
data they present here. Their brief critical evaluations are a
special strength of the book." Children's Literature Association
Quarterly "A welcome addition for all libraries whose staff or
patrons seek the best in children's literature." American Libraries
"Browsers will be ensnared by this book, which gives extremely
detailed (if rather rigorously critical) plot summaries, character
sketches, and brief author biograhies for 420 children's books."
