New Titles for Children and Young People

Ad Alexander, Arthur. The Hidden You; Psychology in Your Life; illus. by Zenowii 4-6 Onyskewych. Prentice-Hall, 1962. 63p. $2.95. An introduction to psychology that is only moderately successful. The author has done a rather good job of side-stepping complicated aspects, save for a few spots where a topic is introduced but not really explained. For example, in describing the causative effect of fear in producing extra sugar, the text states that when we feel fear "a gland" releases "something" that causes the liver to excrete stored sugar. Perfectly accu- rate, yet the fact that "something" is not explained may raise a question in the read- er's mind. There are some excellent portions in the book; Pavlov's experiment is a clear explanation of association. While there are occasional popularized passages (such as an anecdote about a lonely pilot seeing gremlins), the book gives, on the whole, a fairly sound approach to psychology; it does not really explore individual psychology as the title might indicate, but it does discuss personality differences, as- sociation, testing, sensation, illusion, cultural influences, and reflexes. A last chapter describes the roles of psychologists, psychiatrists, and psychoanalysts. An index is ap- pended.

Ad Almedingen, E. M. The Young Pavlova; illus. by Denise Brown. Roy, 1961. 7-10 138p. (Famous Childhoods Series). $3. First published in Great Britain in 1960, a biography of Anna Pavlova that begins when she is seven and follows her training at the Imperial Ballet School until she gets her first role at the age of seventeen. Although the writing is intensely romantic and the author's attitude quite adulatory, the book is interesting because of the authenticity of atmosphere. In the first chapters, Anna as a child of seven and eight is portrayed as so dedicated, sensitive, and precocious as to be not quite believable, but the major part of the book is more realistic. The background of St. Petersburg at the turn of the century is vivid and the almost-consecrated and rigorous life of the ballet school is wonderfully evocative.

R Andrews, Mary Evans. Hostage to Alexander; decorations by Avery Johnson. 7-9 Longmans, 1961. 244p. $3.75. A good adventure story set in the fourth century and told against the background of the struggle for world domination betwveen Darius III and Alexander the Great. Damon, a young hostage from a Rhodian family, participates in the campaigns, hoping all the while to be released; by the time he has the chance to return to Rhodes, he has been won by Alexander, feeling loyalty to him as a leader and anticipating the excitement of further conquest. The writing has pace, good historical detail, and enough focus on the personal involvement of Damon to unify the variations of scene and character.

169 170

R Asimov, Isaac. Realm of Algebra; diagrams by Robert Belmore. Houghton, 7-12 1961. 230p. $3. A remarkably lucid book, in which the material is well-organized and in which new concepts are introduced with clarity and amplified with several simple examples. There is enough repetition in the writing to make the theories presented easy to un- derstand, but it is not the sort of repetition that dulls. The final chapter discusses some applications of algebraic knowledge, from its use in simple financial transac- tions or conversions in recipe measurements, to its use by Cavendish in computing the weight of the earth. An index is appended.

Ad Asimov, Isaac. Words in Genesis; decorations by William Barss. Houghton, 7-10 1962. 233p. $3.25. An unusual book, interesting and informative, occasionally humorous; it is, however, not smoothly written and will possibly be used for browsing. It is doubtful that Mr. Azimov's approach could produce any other result: he proceeds through Genesis with erudition, zest, and a detective zeal that leads the reader into fascinating but digres- sive linguistic tangents. The first part of the book gives excellent background infor- mation about writing materials and Biblical compilation, with word-derivations and word-variants. Useful, also, for religious education collections. Appended are maps, patriarchal family trees, and an extensive index.

R Bell, Thelma Harrington. The Two Worlds of Davy Blount; illus. by Corydon 5-6 Bell. Viking, 1962. 220p. $3. Davy, age ten, lived with his grandparents on an island off the coast of North Caro- lina; much as he loved the sea coast, he was curious about the mountains. Grandfather was a fisherman, Grandmother came from mountain country; each felt their home place was the best. Sent by Grandmother to visit his mountain kinfolk for the first time, Davy came to the conclusion that the mountains were wonderful too, that he now had "two loves, two worlds." The story gets off to a very slow start, with little action in the rather extended description of Davy's life with his grandparents, although the background is interesting. The second part of the book is just as good in evoking at- mosphere, but has more pace in plot development, and more interest because of the introduction of other characters. Characterization is good, with discerning percep- tion of the attitudes of Davy's cousins toward him and toward each other.

R Bergere, Thea. Automobiles of Yesteryear; A Pictorial Record of Motor Cars 6- that made History - Pioneer, Antique, Classic, and Sports Models; illus. by Richard Bergere. Dodd, 1962. 160p. $3.50. Illustrated profusely with handsome and scrupulously detailed drawings, a book that describes outstanding cars from 1893 through 1940. An introductory section gives historical background, and the text is divided into three periods: "The Pioneer Years," "The Antiques," and "The Classic Era." For the most part, a full-page drawing is faced by a page of text, although here and there several sequential pages have illus- trations only. On some pages, set off in italicized type, there is a brief paragraph giv- ing information about the times: for example, 1923, "Warren Harding dies, and Calvin Coolidge becomes President. Marathon dancing and a new game, Mah Jong, sweep the country. Emily Post's Etiquette is a best seller. This year's hit tune is 'Yes! We SHave No Bananas !' The text is crisply and fully informative; the index uses italics for pages on which illustrations appear. The book will probably be used for browsing by boys too young to read all the text, as well as by young people and adults.

NR Betz, Betty. Manners for Moppets. Grosset, 1962. 68p. illus. Trade ed. $2.95; 4-6 Library ed. $3.50 net. yrs. Advice in halting rhyme, with some suggestions that seem to have less to do with man- 171 ners than they have with personality habits. For example, "Every nice child under- stands/ That when meeting folks we shake hands. This lad should really hide his face/ Because he looks so out of place." Rather discouraging to the small child who is shy. Or, "It isn't fun to mope or pout/ While other children play about, So join them when you hear a call/ To play a game or toss a ball." Cartoon-style drawings illustrate the malfeasant examples; the rhymes all take the negative approach.

R Bible. The First Seven Days; The Story of the Creation from Genesis; illus. by 3-5 Paul Galdone. Crowell, 1962. 35p. Trade ed. $3.50; Library ed. $3.36 net. From the King James version, the story of Creation; the book is handsomely illus- trated, some of the pages being softly lovely, some stark, and all in good taste. An excellent book for reading aloud to younger children also; useful in religious educa- tion collections as well as in home, school, or public libraries.

R Bible. Stories from the Bible; by Walter de la Mare; illus. by Edward Ardizzone. 6- Knopf, 1961. 420p. $4.95. A retelling, in distinguished and dignified style, of parts of the first nine books of the Old Testament. Some of the text is very close to Biblical language, other parts are looser interpretations, but all of the writing has the essence and the style of the Bible, while simplifying some of the phraseology. In an interesting introduction, the author gives comparative versions of identical passages, explaining thereby his own reason for writing the book, and expressing his hope that readers of the book will "return to the inexhaustible well-spring from which it came." A good version for reading aloud to younger children, and useful in high school collections.

R Bova, Ben. The Milky Way Galaxy; Man's Exploration of the Stars; drawings by 10- Peter Robinson. Holt, 1961. 228p. $5. A useful book for the reader who has background enough in, or a special interest in, astronomy; detailed and comprehensive, the material is too advanced to serve as an introductory text. The author reviews man's knowledge about stars, with particular emphasis on our own galaxy. Some of the topics discussed are composition, measure- ment, spectroscopy, motion, and terminology; in all of the chapters there is material about past theories and recent investigations. Several reference tables are provided in appendices, and these are followed by a rather lengthy bibliography (most of which is at the adult level) and by a very good relative index.

Ad Bragdon, Lillian J. The Land and People of Switzerland. Lippincott, 1961. 127p. 6-9 illus. (Portraits of the Nations Series). $2.95. First published in 1938 under the title The Land of William Tell; several references have been brought up to date, and this is still a useful book, since the emphasis is on geography, history, and culture rather than on political orientation or recent events. The first three chapters give general information, the remainder of the book being di- vided into such geographic areas as "Geneva and the Lake District" or "Cities of the Northeast." Some excellent photographs and a map are bound into the center of the book; it would have been useful to have had the map earlier. The writing is weakened somewhat by an occasional chatty anecdote that seems out of place, and by an occa- sional generalization such as, ". .. so convinced are many Swiss that because they are situated in the middle of Europe, they control its destinies."

M Bright, Robert. Which is Willy? Doubleday, 1962. 28p. illus. $2. 3-5 yrs. A variation on an old theme, illustrated by drawings of stylized penguins. Willy is a penguin who wants to be different, so he goes to the city; he finds that he doesn't like standing out in a crowd any more than he liked being indistinguishable. He buys opera 172 clothes, is indistinguishable (as indeed he is in the illustrations) and goes home. All the other penguins stare, Willy doesn't like that; he sheds his opera clothes and re- laxes, having learned at last just to be himself. Neither text nor illustrations is out- standing, but the writing has a rather pleasant mild simplicity.

R Brown, Bill. Rain Forest; illus. with photographs. Coward-McCann, 1962. 6-9 96p. $3.50. A description of the Pacific Coast Rain Forest. The first chapter outlines the condi- tions that produce rain forests, and describes the flora and fauna of this rain forest. Succeeding chapters discuss the destruction of trees by careless lumbering, the es- tablishment of conservation methods, including fire prevention and fire fighting, tree farming, and forestry education. The last chapter describes the increasing industrial uses of tree parts formerly considered worthless. An index is appended. A useful book, although much of the material may be found in other books on lumbering or conservation; most of the text is applicable to any kind of forest. The writing style is straightforward and a bit dry; there are a few fictionalized anecdotes which, al- though they are merely adequate in style, do give some variety to the text.

Ad Bush-Brown, Louise. Young America's Garden Book; with drawings by James 6-9 Bush-Brown. Scribner, 1962. 280p. $4.50. A book that is authoritative, comprehensive, and useful; it has, however, an occasion- al note of talking down to the young reader ("And one of the nicest things about achi- menes is that it increases so rapidly that after a year or so you will have ever so many to give away.") and an occasional bit of extraneous material, such as the sec- tion entitled "A Treasury of Thoughts Project." Most of the text is organized as "Projects": under the section on "Flower Projects" are "African Violet Project ... Hanging Basket Project ... Lily-of-the-Valley Project" etc. The information is giv- en clearly, simply, and in good sequence; diagrams are good, and an index is append- ed. Included are a list of sources of bulbs and plants, and extensive charts of plants, divided into annuals, perennials, vines, shrubs, etc. The charts give common and scientific names, height, and other facts (degree of hardiness, colors, information about sowing, etc.) the categories of information varying with the groups of plants.

Ad Carr, Rachel. The Picture Story of Japan; illus. by Kazue Mizumura. McKay, 4-6 1962. 61p. $3.95. By an author who lives for five years in Tokyo, a rather more extensive survey of Japanese culture than is usually available for this reading level. The text, although it has division of material into sections that correspond to chapters, is poorly organ- ized; some descriptions of the modern scene are followed by historical material, but there are brief sub-topics on earthquakes and on Mount Fuji before a new section be- gins. Two of the best sections of the book are on industries and on the Japanese lan- guage. The book gives many interesting bits of information, and much of it is the sort that can come only from observation. There is no table of contents or index. An appended glossary gives the pronunciation of Japanese words used in the book; since it is quite an extensive list, it would be helpful if definitions which are in the text were re-stated. Illustrations give many interesting details but are crowded and busy on many pages; this distraction in lay-out plus the double columns of print on each page tend to increase reading difficulty.

M Cass, Joan. The Cat Thief; pictures by William Stobbs. Abelard-Schuman, K-2 1962. 40p. $2.75. A read-aloud story about the cats of an English town. The cats of all social levels are described: the scrawny kitten from the houseboat The Sea Horse, the aristocratic Siamese, Sarah, who lived in a luxurious home with her two kittens, the large and well-fed Ginger Moll who lived at a fish and chip shop. When a cat thief snatched 173

Sarah's two kittens, an alarm was given by the lean hunter, Esmeralda. All the town's cats rallied and advanced to the station where the cat thief, waiting for a train, was so frightened he dropped the kittens and boarded the train, vowing never to steal an- other cat. A kipper feast was had by all. The plot is slight, but there is some interest in the varied personalities and backgrounds with which the author endows the cats.

R Clark, Ann (Nolan). The Desert People; illus. by Allan Houser. Viking, 1962. 2-4 5 9p. $3. A beautifully written book in which a Papago Indian boy describes his people and their life in the desert of the southwest. He goes through the cycle of the seasons, telling of the homes, the ceremonial rituals, of hunting, planting, and legends of his people. The writing has dignity and a quiet strength; it has, above all, a distinguished lyric quality. The illustrations by an Indian artist give informative details but are, unfor- tunately, in dulled colors. A good book to read aloud to younger children.

M Clifford, Eth. A Bear Before Breakfast; illus. by Kelly Oechsli. Putnam, K-2 1962. 29p. Trade ed. $2.50; Library ed. $2.52 net. An oversize read-aloud book, with lively but distracting illustrations. The text de- scribes two children who keep taking literally their parents' remarks: when mother says she got a charleyhorse while gardening, Jack and Jean run to the window to see the horse, when Daddy says he'll be a monkey's uncle, the children expect to acquire a monkey, when somebody is described as walking on air they want to know what kind of shoes he wore. There is some humor in the writing, and some appeal in the play- ing with words, but the concept seems over-extended, the children seem rather ob- tuse, and the end of the book-the children get permission to stay up late because guests are coming-seems irrelevant. It may be confusing to have the imaginary as well as the real situations illustrated, although most children will be able to recog- nize the device after a few pages.

Ad Coates, Belle. The Sign of the Open Hand; illus. by Albert Micale. Scribner, 3-4 1962. 63p. $2.95. A young Indian girl, Bracelet, and her very old grandfather cannot get to the station to sell their collection of buffalo bones because their old horse refuses to move. When other Indians from a hostile tribe try to get the bag of money that has been left with them for safekeeping, Bracelet and her grandfather outwit the Crees and are given, by their grateful tribesmen, a new horse. The relationship between the child and the old man with whom she is patient and loving is warmly portrayed, but the sentimental overtones weaken the story. It is regrettable that there is no date given in the story (the jacket flap notes that the story is set in the early part of the century) to explain the hostile relations between tribes.

R Colby, Carroll Burleigh. SAC; Men and Machines of Our Strategic Air Com- 6-9 mand. Coward-McCann, 1961. 48p. illus. Trade ed. $2.50; Library ed. $2.52 net. In the usual format of Mr. Colby's books, large photographs are matched with brief passages of text; this volume has more variety than some of the author's previous books. The first twenty pages give broad coverage, then there is a section on air- craft and missiles with statistical information; this is followed by material on per- sonnel, maintenance, and security measures. The top-secret atmosphere (Under- ground Command Post, TV screening of visitors, duplicate Flying Command facili- ties) gives the book dramatic appeal; it will probably be used by readers below sixth grade also, even if they cannot absorb all of the text.

R Colver, Anne. Theodosia; Daughter of Aaron Burr. Holt, 1962. 1 8 2p. Trade 6-9 ed. $3.50; Library ed. $3.27 net. 174

A new edition of the fictionalized biography first published in 1961. Well-written, with good historical background, this is a book in which the melodrama and romance of the actual events need no embroidery. Theodosia's early and happy marriage, her involvement in the political affairs of her greatly loved father, the death of her only child, and her own tragic end are dramatic highlights in the life of a beautiful woman who died at thirty.

R Cooke, Barbara. My Daddy and I; pictures by Cyril Satorsky. Abelard-Schu- 3-5 man, 1961. 31p. $2.50. yrs. Although the illustrations in this read-aloud counting book are slightly busy and so- phisticated, they are rather attractive in technique and are quite clear in the num- bers of objects shown. The rhyming text gives an example or (more usually) two of city sights: nine parking meters, nine buses, ten jet planes. Then the child catalogs the sights seen while walking in the country with Daddy: nine nesting hens, nine nib- bling bunnies, ten jet planes . . . "WHY! We saw those in the city, my Daddy and I!" A nice ending to a book made more useful by the double pattern of counting; the me- ter of the couplets is very good, the use of alliteration is subtle, and the city-country concepts add value.

R Cooke, David Coxe. Flights that Made History. Putnam, 1961. 72p. illus. 5-8 Trade ed. $2.50; Library ed. $2.52 net. A survey of some of the dramatic flights of aviation history, from the first powered flight at Kitty Hawk in 1903 to the 1957 achievement of a nonstop jet flight around the world. Each flight is described in a page of text faced by a full-page photograph; the text is straightforward and concise, giving details about the flyers, the planes, and the flights. The combination of this format and subject makes the book useful for slow high school readers. Arrangement of material is chronological; there is no index.

M Cummings, William T. Wickford of Beacon Hill. McGraw-Hill, 1962. 32p. K-2 illus. $2.50. Wickford is a talking cockatoo of whom Peter is very proud, but Peter's parents don't consider his pet as useful as the cat or the dog. They change their minds, how- ever, when Wickford saves the day: Father loses his voice, and the cockatoo takes over as guide on Father's sightseeing bus. The illustrations have humor and add to the details of Boston atmosphere that are in the story; the plot is unoriginal, and- although it, too, has humorous elements-the story is weakened by imputation of hu- man emotions to the bird in a situation where the fanciful aspects conflict with the realistic details of family life and Boston scenes.

NR Curren, Polly. The Fantastic Adventures of Westley Riggs; illus. by Kelly 3-5 Oechsli. Bobbs-Merrill, 1961. 127p. $2.95. An episodic and labored fantasy. Westley, who lives in a twenty-one room house, gets into ploys which involve his father (generally irate), his mother (generally vague and helpless), the butler, the maid, and the cook. The episodes are drawn-out and forced: in the first one, Westley uses a cookie-mix that turns him into a cookie. The butler and the maid, trying to return him to normal form, dial s-t-e-w on the telephone be- cause Westley is in a stew; this sets off a series of frantic telephone calls (the cookie factory lady suggests calling the Army because Westley is a doughboy) and Westley is retrieved just in time by the cook, who defrosts him by wiping his frosting off with her apron.

R Decker, Duane Walter. Rebel in Right Field. Morrow, 1961. 190p. $2.95. 7-9 175

Another good baseball story about the Blue Sox, with some of the same characters. The central character here is Danny Redd, who joins the team after three years in the minor leagues; Danny is good and he knows it, but his weakness is in the fact that he won't dive for a ball for fear of getting hurt. Several times Danny is warned that he must go all out or be dropped, and he knows that the fans as well as his team- mates are resentful. Although the book ends in a fairly patterned way (a sixteen- inning game in which Danny knocks himself out and saves the day) the plot is realis- tic: Danny does not change overnight, but rises to an occasion of stress. The descrip- tions of games are very well-written, and the characters are all believable although few of them are presented with any depth.

Ad De Jong, Dola. Between Home and Horizon; tr. from the Dutch by Madeleine 7-10 Mueller. Knopf, 1962. 215p. Trade ed. $3.; Library ed. $3.29 net. First published in Holland in 1936 under the title Tussen Huis en Horizon. Tobi and Mieke are identical twins, but very different in personality. On a holiday trip to Lon- don, they meet a Dutch newspaperman; Mieke, romantic and light-hearted, falls in love with Huib and soon marries him. Tobi, serious and dedicated to her music, has an unhappy love affair; she decides to devote herself to studying piano, and she has a much more difficult time than her twin reaching the point where she has self-con- fidence about her goal and can accept the combination of career and marriage. Char- acterization is good, and the story is developed realistically; the book is slightly weak- ened by the slow, detailed writing. It is interesting to see in this earlier work of Miss De Jong a tendency to over-exposition that is no longer present in her smoothly-writ- ten recent work.

Ad Dillon, Eilfs. The Fort of Gold; illus. by Harper Johnson. Funk and Wagnalls, 6-9 1962. 182p. $2.95. Tradition had it that there was gold buried at the fort where the Spaniards had died centuries before, but superstition on the island of Inishdara had kept people from try- ing to find it. Three boys dare the wrath of the ghosts and are rewarded with treasure, but they become involved with some strangers who prove to be thieving archeologists. The plot is melodramatic, but the book is otherwise excellent: the atmosphere and background are evocative, the characters beautifully developed, and the Irish humor (especially in conversation) pervasive and sly.

Ad Einsel, Walter. Did You Ever See? Scott, 1962. 63p. illus. $3. 3-5 yrs. Bold, stylized illustrations that are interesting in design but are, on some pages, dis- tractingly page-filling, are used to amplify some nonsense rhymes. Each question is asked and illustrated on a double-page spread, with the last and rhyming word being accorded another double-page drawing. Some of the rhymes are genuinely humorous in conception, some seem a bit contrived. "Did you ever see a sheep . . . asleep?" shows the sheep counting people; "Did you ever see a yak . . crack?" shows a yak splitting in two. The ending, "Did you ever see a book . . end?" gives a nice fillip to the pattern.

R Farb, Peter. The Story of Dams; An Introduction to Hydrology; illus. by George 6-9 Kanelous. Harvey House, 1961. 126p. $2.95. A comprehensive and authoritative discussion of dams: of construction methods, pur- poses, types of dams, and of related topics such as irrigation, electric power, flood control, and the water cycle. The organization of the material is into such large areas; the text is weakened to some extent by the fact that within these areas there is a con- siderable amount of repetition and some overlapping. A second minor fault is in the inadequately labeled diagrams; on the whole, the book gives excellent and accurate in- 176 formation. A chapter at the end of the book suggests some assorted home demonstra- tions: generating electricity, checking stream sediment, mapping a creek basin. In addition to the pronouncing index, the book gives a list of about 200 dams in the Unit- ed States where visitors are allowed, and gives a rather extensive divided bibliog- raphy.

NR Feagles, Anita MacRae. The Tooth Fairy. Scott, 1962. 3 0p. illus. $1.50. 4-6 yrs. A description of the fairy that leaves coins in exchange for teeth deposited under the pillow. The book has no plot, but expands on the uses that the Tooth Fairy finds for her collected teeth; it concludes with the fact that her liking for teeth is based on her own lack of them. The slight and attenuated text is mitigated somewhat by mild hu- mor, but has little else of value; the illustrations are ordinary but adequate.

Ad Francoise. Minou. Scribner, 1962. 31p. illus. $2.95. K-2 A read-aloud book with pleasant illustrations; the plot is slim and the ending rather weak. A small Parisienne has lost her cat, Minou, and asks everywhere for him; fi- nally an old man tells her that he has seen Minou on a barge, "But he will come back to Paris! Yes, he will! Everyone does!" The traditional lure of Paris is an adult concept, so that these words may seem, to a child, far from conclusive. The illustra- tions that give such bits of Parisian background as kiosks and shop-signs are delight- ful, but cannot be fully appreciated by a child too young to identify them or to read the French words.

Ad Freeman, Godfrey. The Owl and the Mirror; illus. by Kiddell-Monroe. Duell, 5-7 1961. 116p. $3. A compilation of anecdotes about the prankster of Germany whose name and exploits have become legendary over the centuries. The style of writing is adequate, but the stories become dull because they are so similar. It is not, of course, Mr. Freeman as the author of this version who is culpable, but the nature of Till's mischief is not pleasant, since every tale concerns the tricking of other people, sometimes to a se- rious extent. In one tale, for example, Till hoodwinks the head of a hospital (who is a stranger and has done Till no disservice) by collecting money for "healing" all his patients; when the sick people come back to the hospital the following day, they tell the head that Till had whispered that the last one out would be burned, so-no matter how ill-they had all fled the building.

R Gage, Wilson. Dan and the Miranda; pictures by Glen Rounds. World, 1962. 4-5 125p. $2.95. As in A Wild Goose Tale, a successful blend of nature writing and of perceptive and realistic description of a boy. Casting about rather pessimistically for a project for the fifth grade science fair, Dan decides to work on spiders. He becomes fascinated, he learns a great deal, he gets all the members of his family involved in his new in- terest . . but he can't bring himself to kill spiders. He finally realizes with relief that he'd rather pursue his hobby for his own pleasure than organize material for a project. The scientific aspects are presented with simplicity and are deftly integrated into the story; Dan's increasing interest is convincing, although Dan is not a strong character. The book has a good balance of interests: family relations, friends, pur- suit of project. Characterization and dialogue are excellent, and there is in the writ- ing a quiet but pervasive humor.

R Gagliardo, Ruth, ed. Let's Read Aloud; Stories and Poems Selected by Ruth 4-7 Gagliardo; illus. by Valenti Angelo. Lippincott, 1962. 256p. $4.95. 177

An anthology of well-chosen selections, most of the prose material being excerpted from books. The book is very good for its planned purpose of reading aloud; it may also serve to encourage children to read the original material. Mrs. Gagliardo has wisely chosen, in those cases where a chapter from a book is given, a chapter that stands by itself. Sources are acknowledged in a listing at the beginning of the book and again at the end of the selection.

Ad Gramet, Charles. Reproduction and Sex in Animal Life; illus. by J. Yunge- 6-9 Bateman. Abelard-Schuman, 1962. 140p. $3.75. A rather rambling text, in which the various aspects of reproduction of animals is explained fairly simply, but with quite a bit of repetition and with an occasional pas- sage that is inadequate. For example, chapter two, "Reproduction Without Sex," dis- cusses single-celled life forms like paramecia; it ends, "Reproduction by fission is simple, direct, abundant. But sex appears even among these single-celled animals." There is no amplification of this statement, the next chapter going on to multicellu- lar animals that reproduce by budding or regeneration, or by changing from sexual to asexual methods. The description of reproduction in the human animal is straight- forward and dignified, with a brief discussion of the legal, social, and religious sanc- tions of marriage and the relationship of the institution of marriage to the love be- tween mates and the long period of helplessness of the human infant. A good biology book, on the whole, but less effective than it could be because of the diffusion in or- ganization, the repetitive writing, and the occasional-but important-places where the author fails either to give adequate background or to give adequate explanation. The appended index gives definitions for some of the entries.

R Haggar, Reginald G. Sculpture Through the Ages; illus. by the author. Roy, 9- 1962. 80p. $3.25. An informative and authoritative book. General background is given first on such topics as carving and modeling, color in sculpture, or the materials of the sculptor. The major part of the text is arranged chronologically, describing the techniques and some of the great artists or famous sculptures from the magical images of the Stone Age to the work of such contemporary artists as Henry Moore. A glossary, a bibliography (chiefly British publications) and an index are appended. The book was first published in England in 1960, and there are occasional passages directed to the British reader, such as the section headed "Where to find good sculpture," which gives sites in England and ends, "If you cross the Channel you may be surprised at the amount of sculpture to be seen in public places." The book is profusely illustrat- ed; the writing is serious and detailed.

NR Hall, Gordon Langley. Peter Jumping Horse; illus. by Jennifer Kent. Holt, 4-5 1961. 144p. $2.75. Peter lives on the Ojibway Indian Reservation in Canada; ten years old, Peter limps due to an old injury. He is saving money for corrective surgery, and the book ends with the operation over and Peter back home. This thread is a minor part of the book, which is primarily a series of anecdotes about the quaint and amusing Indians. Some of the characters are exaggerated, some are stereotyped; the British schoolteacher is a pretty young woman, but she is also a stock figure of the wise white counselor in a community of natives. Some of the conceptions of incidents would be humorous were it not for the fact that the humor almost invariably resolves into a supercilious amusement at the foibles of the Ojibways. Some examples: "When she couldn't find a single clue she blamed the glass and in a fit of temper threw it out of what had once been a window. It landed on Elsie Bass-Trout's head, and she ran screaming off the headland shouting that a ghost had hit her." or "Well, that's very nice of Mrs. Bass- Trout, I'm sure," replied Miss Burgess, immediately recalling all the free suppers she had been forced to give her already." or "Wait a minute, Uncle Pine-branch, 178 while I cut my corns, then I'll open the door and we'll all have cocoa."

Ad Hanauer, Ethel. Biology for Children; written and illus. by Ethel Hanauer. 5-8 Sterling, 1962. 96p. Trade ed. $2.95; Library ed. $2.84 net. Not a text on biology as the title might indicate, but a compilation of home demon- strations; the projects are generally simple, and the instructions clearly given, but some of them necessitate equipment that not all readers may be able to obtain. For the first group of projects, a microscope is needed, for example. The suggestions are all divided into three parts: "materials," "Follow this procedure," and "You will observe"; each project has devoted to it approximately one page. Because of the brev- ity and variety of the selections, the book will probably be used more as a guide for a hobby than as a book for reading; as either, it would be more useful if there were an index. Although there is no prefatory explanation of photosynthesis to help a read- er understand more clearly the purpose of a demonstration, there is-as an example of the ancillary teaching function of the text-enough explanatory material given in the several projects involving photosynthesis that the reader will perforce learn something of the process.

R Hoff, Syd. Stanley; story and pictures by Syd Hoff. Harper, 1962. 64p. (ICan 1 Read Books). Trade ed. $1.95; Library ed. $2.19 net. For beginning independent readers, an entertaining improvement on pre-history. Stanley wasn't like the other cavemen; he liked comfort, friendliness, and aesthetic creativity. Ousted by the tribe, Stanley built the first house in the world, and it wasn't long before the other cavemen saw that Stanley was right: their caves were old- fashioned. So they all built houses, and Stanley showed them how to paint pictures, sow seeds, and be nice to animals. Stanley as a character has some of the appeal of Ferdinand, and the telescoping of centuries of prehistoric progress is too tongue-in- cheek to be anything but amusing; the writing is bland and some of the cartoon-style drawings are very funny.

Ad Holl, Adelaide. Sylvester; The Mouse with the Musical Ear; illus. by N. M. 2-3 Bodecker. Golden Press, 1961. 31p. (Golden Beginner Readers). Trade ed. $1.; Library ed. $1.49 net. A fanciful story about a country mouse who loved the musical sounds about him and was distressed when his meadow was dug up for building use. Looking for compatible surroundings, Sylvester moved into a guitar in a music store; when he played, people thought the guitar was magic. A cowboy came from the West, bought the guitar, dis- covered the mouse; they came to be a happy traveling duo, Sylvester playing the gui- tar and Tex singing. The illustrations are in soft color, attractive and somewhat reminiscent of Eric Blegvad's style. The story is pleasant enough, but there seems an abundance of plot for so brief a story: the encroachment of the city, or the music shop residence, or the teaming of Tex and Sylvester would be sufficient as a story line in a book for beginning readers.

Ad Kent, Margaret. The Lucky Thirteen; Stories from Around the World; illus. by 4-6 Imre Hofbauer. Pantheon Books, 1961. 157p. $3. Thirteen short stories, each about a child in a different country, and each based on a rather dramatic incident: a houseboat swept away in a flood, a fall into a glacial crevasse, etc. The stories are not outstanding as literary products, and the ethical concepts are often a bit obtrusive-as in the one story from the United States: "She remembered the many times when neighbors had been kind to her, and so she always tried in her turn to be kind to others." Despite these mild inadequacies, the collec- tion should be useful because the children in the stories are pictured today, whereas many such collections are set in the past. 179

M King, Leon, tr. The Enchanted Princess; And Other Fairy Tales; illus. by 5-6 Benvenuti. Golden Press, 1962. 154p. (Giant Golden Books). Trade ed. $3.95; Library ed. $4.99 net. An oversize book containing a dozen tales, first printed in Italy in 1959; the full- color illustrations are intricately detailed. No sources are given for the fairy tales, which have many of the familiar motifs (the rescued princess, the poor only son who becomes a king, the three wishes) but do not capture the style of the genre. "Then he hitched up the seven league boots and in a few dozen strides was in Madrid. He happened to know that Madrid is the capital of Spain." or "Did apples and crackers and cold milk suddenly appear on this page? No? Well, nothing appeared on Tall One's table, either."

Ad Krasilovsky, Phyllis. The Very Little Boy; pictures by Ninon. Doubleday, 1962. 3-5 30p. $1.95. yrs. A rather slight book for reading aloud, with a static quality, but with a theme that will give some aid and comfort to the very young. The text catalogs all the things the very little boy couldn't do or couldn't reach; it then cites all the things the boy could do as he grew bigger: carry groceries, transfer from crib to bed, reach the pedals on his bicycle, etc. Not unusual in theme or outstanding in illustrations, but a book that will be satisfying to children, especially because the simplicity of the writing is such that small listeners can "read" along after a few hearings.

R Kunhardt, Dorothy. Billy the Barber; illus. by William Pene Du Bois. Harper, K-2 1961. 47p. Trade ed. $1.95; Library ed. $2.19 net. A warm read-aloud story about the last work-day of a barber about to retire. Billy's skill at his job and his kindness toward people are shown as the day progresses; at the close of the day his customers present Billy with a device that will permit him to sit while working, and they urge him not to retire. Billy agrees, pleased and re- lieved at the prospect of just that. The story gives status to barbers most unobtrusive- ly; there is humor in some of the incidents (the mayor is bald, but Billy keeps his se- cret by pretending to cut his toupee each week), and in others there is a delightful evi- dence of patience, especially with a nervous child. Simply told and pleasantly illus- trated.

Ad Kusan, Ivan. The Mystery of Green Hill; tr. from the Yugoslavian by Michael 5-7 B. Petrovich; illus. by Kermit Adler. Harcourt, 1962. 189p. $3.25. A group of five boys determine to find out who is robbing the families in Green Hill, a Yugoslavian village not yet recovered from the ravages of war. After following sev- eral false clues (and stealing a camera which they plan to return after photographing the thieves) the boys find that it is the father and brother of Tom, one of their num- ber. One of the boys succumbs to being a collaborator with the thieves, but redeems himself by helping Tom. The ending is weakened by the fact that Tom's mother an- nounces that the two culprits are not really Tom's father and brother, but her second husband and his own son. The plot has pace, the boys are realistically portrayed, and the background adds interest; the writing style, possibly suffering in translation, is somewhat convoluted.

Ad Lattimore, Eleanor Frances. Laurie and Company; written and illus. by 2-4 Eleanor Frances Lattimore. Morrow, 1962. 128p. $2.75. A realistic story, written in a placid style that is just a bit dull. Laurie's widowed mother was a seamstress, so Laurie had many scraps for her hobby of making toy animals. When she went to live in her aunt's apartment, her aunt having decided to sell the house in which Laurie and her mother had been living, Laurie missed her friends and her dog. In an all-ends-tied closing, Laurie goes back to her old house. 180

Lonely Aunt Augusta will now have company, for she moves in with her cook; the cook can now enjoy her work because they will open a small tearoom; Mother, tired of sewing, can run the tearoom; Laurie can again have her dog and her friends, who name their project (a store) "Laurie and Company" because the toy animals are their best products. Mildly pleasant, but too many threads in the plot in a book for this level of audience.

Ad Lear, Edward. Edward Lear's Nonsense Alphabet; pictures by Richard K-2 Scarry. Doubleday, 1962. 24p. $1.75. A small illustrated version of one of Lear's alphabet books with nonsense rhymes; the illustrations are ordinary in technique and rather distracting in the amount of page space they fill. The verses are nonsense, but they also have connotative imagi- nary words, "I was once a bottle of ink, Inky, Dinky, Thinky, Inky, Blacky minky, Bottle of ink!" or "P was once a little pump, Pumpy, Slumpy, Flumpy, Pumpy, Dumpy, thumpy, Little pump!"

Ad Low, Joseph. Adam's Book of Odd Creatures; verse and pictures by Joseph K-2 Low. Atheneum, 1962. 35p. $3.50. An alphabet book to be read aloud; the book cannot serve as a learning device, but will interest the child who is intrigued by odd words or creatures. The rhyme in which the text is written is occasionally forced, but the book has great visual appeal: handsome format and colorful illustrations. The device (slightly contrived) used is Adam's naming of the twenty-six creatures left over when he'd first named the beasts. The words begin: alewife, basilisk, 'cassowary, etc. Interesting, but really rather sophisticated for the picture book age. The quotation from Genesis that pre- cedes the text seems inappropriate in a book that stresses humor and word-play, and that does not follow Biblical interpretation.

R McClung, Robert M. Whitefoot; The Story of a Wood Mouse; written and illus. 2-4 by Robert M. McClung. Morrow, 1961. 4 8p. Trade ed. $2.75; Library ed. $2.78 net. In a simple narrative style, the book tells of the cycle of a year; Whitefoot mates and brings up her litter, evades the predatory shrew and fox, seeks shelter in a barn dur- ing the winter months, and in the spring is ready again for a new nest and a new fam- ily. Information about nesting habits, food, and habitat are woven smoothly into the writing, with no sentimentality and no personalizing.

NR Marcus, Rebecca B. Science in the Garden; pictures by Jo Polseno. Watts, 3-4 1961. 25p. $1.50. A small book of introductory information about botany; designated by the publisher as fare for ages four to seven, the material seems too advanced for those ages, while for the child who can read the book independently the style is a bit juvenile. The information given is accurate but superficial and confusingly presented; for ex- ample, photosynthesis is described but not really explained, and the approach, "Green leaves know the secret of making food in light" is not very scientific. Illustrations are mediocre in technique; some are informative, some decorative.

NR Martin, George. The Battle of the Frogs and the Mice; An Homeric Fable; 5-6 illus. by Fred Gwynne. Dodd, 1962. 55p. $3.50. A free adaptation of a fable; although the subtitle cites Homer, the jacket flap states, ". . . originally ascribed to Homer, but now believed to have been written about 300 years after him by an unknown author." The book is quite saturated with gore. Illus- trations show chopped limbs and a head being sharply decapitated, and-in the same picture-a frog with a spear plunged through his middle. And the text, for example, ". .. his sticky blood stained the sand. He was truly a giant among Frogs, And as 181 he lay, his fat entrails (By his small guts' impulsion) broke Way out at his wound." or, "And on the shore Alone and in the dark lay Pond-larker Staring at the Heavens with open eyes As the driving rain cleansed his corpse. . . ." It seems a pity that the author's ability to write in a strong heroic style should be used to this unpleas- ant result.

Ad Meeuse, B. J. D. The Story of Pollination; with drawings by Hilda Kern. 8- Ronald, 1961. 243p. $7.50. Too loosely organized to be used as a textbook, yet wonderfully detailed and infor- mative. The text is written with wonder, with relish, and with humor, so that the ex- tensive and intensive exposition of the subject does not pall. Occasionally the author becomes perhaps too jocose (especially in the chapter headings, which are coy) but on the whole the humor serves to enliven the book. The illustrations are not always adequately labeled, but most of them are accurate, and the colored botanical draw- ings are meticulously detailed. Some of the topics discussed are color vision (es- pecially interesting are the experiments with bees), honey guides (patterns on flower petals to guide pollinating visitors), and the traps that attract insects to plants. A selected bibliography is appended; the index is unusually detailed-almost twenty pages long, with relative references and with scientific names in italics-and indi- cates that the book may be used as a reference source.

R Norton, Andre. Catseye. Harcourt, 1961. 192p. $3.25. 7-10 A good science fantasy. Troy Horan, a lower-caste hireling of a pet-shop owner on the planet Korwar, discovers that he is in telepathic communication with some Terran imports. When his employer dies, Troy finds that the animals are part of an involved spy system; with them he flees to an underground refuge. Troy eventually wins his freedom and is admitted to rights in the Clan of the Hunters and the chance to live in the guarded Wild Country with his animals. The writing has pace although it is sometimes turgid in detail; the conception of the culture of Korwar is fully developed but it never intrudes on the strong story line.

Ad Olds, Helen (Diehl). What's a Cousin?; illus. by Velma Ilsley. Knopf, 1962. 2-4 34p. Trade ed. $2.75; Library ed. $2.99 net. Pam, staying at the beach with her grandparents, was lonely and looked forward to having her two cousins, Kate and Andrea, begin their stay. Grandma had explained what a cousin was, but the girls weren't as much fun as Pam had hoped: they had dif- ferent interests, and the three didn't get along well. Then they had a problem that re- quired them to work together, and they discovered that cousins could be friends-and fun. A rather slight plot, but the treatment is realistic and the writing style has a pleasant simplicity. While the story is about cousins, it has an unobtrusive message about cooperation and the fact that it usually leads to better relations.

M Palmer, Myron Tim. Treachery in Crete; written and illus. by Myron Tim 6-8 Palmer. Houghton, 1961. 167p. $2.75. A sequel to The Egyptian Necklace; Ar and Pta, boys of fifteen, go with a former tu- tor, Yarem, on a combined business and pleasure trip to Crete. They become in- volved in the machinations of Yarem's wicked cousin, Hatich, who wants the family wealth; ambushed by Hatich, the boys are taken aboard ship and are rescued by the young daughter of the Cretan high priestess. They attend a festival at Knossos, are set upon after they depart, and take refuge on a ship. Stopping to retrieve the Cretan family's treasure, all sail back to Egypt. The background details are quite vivid, and there is considerable information about Cretan life in both the story and the illustra- tions (which are in Cretan style but have nothing to do with the narrative.) The plot, however, is lurid and there is no cessation of dramatic incidents except for descrip- 182 tive passages about Cretan culture.

M Phelan, Mary Kay. The White House; illus. by Ed Emberley. Holt, 1962. 4 4p. 2-4 (A Book to Begin On ... Series). Trade ed. $2.50; Library ed. $2.57 net. A review of the building of, and some changes in, the White House is combined with brief anecdotes about some of the presidents, with emphasis on incidents concerning some of the children who lived there. Illustrations are rather cartoon-like; one page is difficult to read because of the blue crayon background; the book gives some inter- esting facts. The writing style is poor: there are abrupt jumps from one topic to the next, some of these being confusing as well as awkward. For example, "James Madi- son Randolph (Jefferson's grandchild) was the first baby born in the President's house." is followed, on the next page, by, "While the next president, James Madison, lived in the house, there were many gay parties." Again, "In 1861, the sixteenth pres- ident, Abraham Lincoln, brought his family to the White House. A month later the Civil War began." The pages are not numbered; there is no index; text is continuous.

R Picard, Barbara Leonie. Tales of the British People; retold by Barbara Leonie 5-7 Picard; illus. by Eric Fraser. Criterion Books, 1961. 159p. $3. A retelling of nine traditional stories covering the period from the first Celtic inva- sion to the end of the fourteenth century. The material represents varied peoples: Normans and Saxons, Celts, Vikings, and Romans. The literary quality is excellent, and the author has added to the value of the collection by prefacing each tale with a brief historical introduction.

Ad Pierce, Hubbell. Murdoch; pictures by D. H. Harper, 1961. 20p. Trade ed. K-2 $1.95; Library ed. $2.19 net. A slight read-aloud book about a mouse and his relatives; format and illustrations are quietly attractive. Murdoch gets a croquet set, and his mother arranges a large fete so that her only child can give an exhibition. He does, the others are impressed and want to learn, Murdoch decides that if he has taught himself croquet he can now go on to something more difficult like tennis. There is little plot or action, all of the humor being invested in extensions of one concept-it is funny to think of mice en- gaged in human activities.

M Roberts, Mary D. Promises to Keep. Duell, 1962. 150p. $3.50. 7-9 Carol had always wanted to be a nurse, but her school work wasn't very good; she decided to work harder in her junior year. She loved being a nurse's aide, and when she realized that her grades would not permit her entry into a school for registered nurses, she accepted quite happily the prospect of being a practical nurse. The writ- ing is mediocre and the plot fairly patterned (father has accident, mother must take a job); the book deviates from formula, however, in one way that may give it value for some readers: Carol is only adequate as a student, but she does her best and her parents understand this.

Ad Rubicam, Harry C. Men at Work in the Great Plains States. Putnam, 1961. 4-6 123p. illus. $3. A useful book, despite the fact that the writing style is trite and the author is inclined to inject into the text light or irrelevant remarks. For example, one chapter begins "Our forefathers sang an old song about: 'Left foot, right foot, any foot at all' . . and that's the way it used to be with shoes." Chapters are organized about individual industries or crops, with emphasis on processes and machines used in industry or agriculture. Chapter headings are not always informative: "The Business That's Different" or "We Couldn't Do Without Them"; some are coy: "They've Got Our Goats". An index is appended. 183

M Schurr, Cathleen. Cats Have Kittens-Do Gloves Have Mittens?; illus. by K-2 Marjorie Auerbach. Knopf, 1962. 27p. Trade ed. $2.95; Library ed. $3.19 net. A picture book with verse text; illustrations are bright, stylized woodcuts most of which are attractive and gay, although some pages are distractingly full. The author uses a four-line pattern: "Frogs have tadpoles, Horses have foals, Ducks have duck- lings, Does bread have rolls?" The conclusion: things can't have babies, only animals and people can. A light treatment of a single theme, occasionally amusing, but con- fusing to the intended audience by the use of the word "have"; some children to whom the book was presented did not grasp the connotation of reproduction.

R Shenfield, Margaret. Bernard Shaw; A Pictorial Biography. Viking, 1962. 9- 144p. illus. $5.95. An excellent biography for mature readers: forthright, sophisticated, and well-writ- ten. There is a good balance between admiration for Shaw's achievements and candid criticism of his foibles; there is good balance between the amount of text devoted to Shaw's personal life and his professional attainments. The writing is vivid and crisp; most of the photographs are interesting, although there are some few that seem to be merely filler -such as a picture of cheering crowds during World War I or a pic- ture of London traffic with a caption explaining that Shaw sometimes wrote while on buses like those pictured. A chronological list of events, an extensive list of notes about photographs used, and an index are appended.

Ad Shura, Mary Francis. Mary's Marvelous Mouse; illus. by Adrienne Adams. 2-3 Knopf, 1962. 28p. Trade ed. $2.75; Library ed. $2.99 net. A slight but pleasant book, with light humor; illustrations are attractive and the print is large and clear. The mouse that Mary thought marvelous was a nuisance to Mary's mother; then Tommy caught the mouse and put it in a jar; Mary fed it so well that the mouse stuck in the neck of the jar when she tried to get it out. The cat tried to get the mouse, the jar broke, the mouse escaped, and Mary saved the wonderful cage, built by Tommy, for another mouse. The appeal of the story is in the simplicity and warmth of the writing.

R Steele, William Owen. Westward Adventure; The True Stories of Six Pioneers; 6-9 maps by Kathleen Voute. Harcourt, 1962. 188p. $3.25. Six vignettes of pioneer life, based on original source material that is cited in an ap- pended bibliography. The fictionalized accounts are dramatic in themselves and are vividly described; Mr. Steele's straightforward reporting serves, indeed, to make more effective the adventurous or hazardous aspects of the six stories.

M Stenhouse, Lawrence. The Story of Scotland; illus. by B. Biro. Watts, 1962. 7-9 64p. $4.95. A history of Scotland in oversize format, profusely illustrated; many of the drawings are more decorative than informative. The only map of modern Scotland is a poor one, and there is no index. The text is continuous and the writing is heavy with tra- ditional cumulation of dates, battles, and names. The format does not seem appropri- ate for the level of reading difficulty: "The strong position which James H had at- tained was thrown away by the injudicious government of his successor, James III, under whom the nobles regained the power they had lost to his father in a series of campaigns that ended with the slaughter of the king as he hid in an old mill, a fugi- tive from a crushing defeat at the hands of his own nobles on the field of Sauchieburn, close to that Bannockburn which had seen one of Scotland's more glorious episodes." The book gives information, but is not as well written as Lauber's Valiant Scots (Coward-McCann, 1957) or Buchanan's The Land and People of Scotland (Lippincott, 1958.) 184

M Sutton, Felix. The City Under the Sea. Duell, 1961. 146p. $3. 7-9 Young scientist Ace Cooper, in a new science fiction adventure, travels on an atom- ic submarine to a secret government establishment: Project Atlantis, an underwater naval base. He is instrumental in trapping the Russian spy who, having outwitted the security system, is planning to blow up the base. The plot is lurid and the characters are stock, but the writing style is adequate and there is some interest in the infor- mation about the functioning of an atomic submarine.

Ad Syme, Ronald. Francis Drake; Sailor of the Unknown Seas; illus. by William 4-6 Stobbs. Morrow, 1961. 96p. Trade ed. $2.75; Library ed. $2.78 net. A biography that concentrates on Drake's years as a sea-captain, through the time of the defeat of the Armada; a few pages are devoted to his boyhood, and two pages at the close of the book describe his last years briefly. Some of the writing is vivid, and the material is always dramatic, but the impact of events is dulled somewhat by the fact that the writing is all at one level of action. In incident after incident there is a great deal of movement and drama, with no interludes to set them off. The sub- ject, although he is carefully delineated as a courageous, patriotic, and colorful ad- venturer, never is developed as a distinctive personality: he might be any Elizabe- than pirate-mariner.

Ad Thomas, Henry. Ulysses S. Grant. Putnam, 1961. 192p. $2.95. 6-9 A biography that concentrates on Grant's military and political life, his childhood and years at West Point being covered in the first two chapters. The chapters on the Civil War years are fairly familiar material, adequately handled; the last part of the book is excellent in its presentation of Grant's last years: his involvement in a finan- cial scandal, his courage upon learning that he had cancer, and his determined (and successful) struggle to finish writing his memoirs before he died. The book is weak- ened by stilted dialogue that seems quite fictionalized, and by the not-infrequent in- clusion of such trite writing as "Another child was soon on the way, and the cup of their happiness seemed full to overflowing." or ". . . he healed the scars of the na- tion after the bitterness and bloodshed of the Civil War." An index and a selected bibliography are appended.

Ad Tudor, Tasha. Alexander the Gander. Walck, 1961. 45p. illus. $2.75. 4-6 yrs. A reissue of a 1939 title. When his mistress stopped to chat with Mrs. Fillow, Alex- ander noticed the delicious-looking heliotrope pansies in the garden; he soon found a chance to get into the garden, where he feasted on vegetable seedlings. Just as he was about to have the pansies for dessert, he was seen by Mrs. Fillow, who shooed him away. His owner brought him back "to apologize for doing such naughty, things." and Mrs. Fillow pardoned him; then they all had a friendly meal together. The illus- trations are pretty and pastel, the story-although slight and just a bit sweet-has simplicity and some humor.

R Werstein, Irving. The Battle of Midway; maps by Ava Morgan. Crowell, 1961. 7- 145p. $2.75. A scrupulously detailed account of the momentous and action-filled several days of the attack on Midway by the Japanese. The author gives good background for the re- port, and his description is unusual in that it gives the planning and the strategy as it took place with both of the participants. Objective in attitude and both lucid and critical in assessing the decisions and the tactics of the Japanese and of the Amer- icans. Some few statistics, a brief bibliography, and an index are appended. Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
