Thank you for the link to a wonderful blog. The descriptions of children's books makes me wish I could turn back time (oh, a bit more than half-a-century) and immerse myself again in the worlds offered by the kinds of books featured on the site. Perhaps I can do it vicariously if I simply assign such books to students in my undergraduate literature classes; surely they would not object to abandoning Sophocles, Shakespeare, and Melville in favor of such wistful entertainments.
