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.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction Walter de la Mare\u003cbr\u003e Preface to the first edition\u003cbr\u003e Preface to the second edition\u003cbr\u003e The first bookshelf\u003cbr\u003e Saints and the bible\u003cbr\u003e Poetry\u003cbr\u003e Fairy tales and fables\u003cbr\u003e Gods and heroes\u003cbr\u003e Famous people\u003cbr\u003e History\u003cbr\u003e Around the world\u003cbr\u003e Science\u003cbr\u003e Natural history\u003cbr\u003e Things to do\u003cbr\u003e Sports and games\u003cbr\u003e Art and architecture\u003cbr\u003e Music, songs, and the ballet\u003cbr\u003e Story-books\u003cbr\u003e To read aloud\u003cbr\u003e General knowledge\u003cbr\u003e Appendix I.
