The National Book League was a precursor to the current Booktrust,
and was set up in 1924 by the Society of Bookmen in order to
promote reading, particularly among the young. To that end, the NBL
issued Reader's Guides on a variety of subjects, each written by an
author with expertise in that field and containing an annotated
bibliography of recommended titles on the subject. First published
in 1956 as the second edition of a 1950 original, this book
contains a list of children's books suitable for children from
infancy until the early teens. Lines divides the books by topic and
type, including books to read aloud, historical stories, scientific
books and books on art and architecture. This book will be of value
to anyone with an interest in the history of children's literature.
