Unparalleled in scope and quality and designed for reading aloud and
sharing, this splendid anthology brings together 43 of the most memorable and
beloved children's books of our time. Here are classics such as Madeline
and Curious George; contemporary bestsellers such as Guess How Much I
Love You and The Stinky Cheese Man; Caldecott Medal winners such as
Make Way for Ducklings and Where the Wild Things Are; and family
favorites such as Goodnight Moon, The Sneetches, and
Winnie-the-Pooh. The selections range from concept books and wordless
books to picture books and short read-aloud stories, and represent the complete
array of childhood themes and reading needs: ABCs, number and color books,
stories about going to bed and going to school; tales about growing up,
siblings, parents, and grandparents; animal stories, fantasies; fables; magical
stories; stories about everyday life--and more. Also included are an
introduction, capsule biographies of the 62 writers and artists represented in
the collection, color-coded running heads indicating age levels, and indexes.
As a gift, a keepsake, and a companion in a child's first steps toward a
lifelong love of reading, The 20th Century Children's Book Treasury
belongs in every family's bookcase.
