DEAR MR. WEEKS: Twice a year I look at hundreds of new books for young people, and heretofore, following your instructions, I have always made a selection of eighteen or twenty which seemed to me to be top-notch. This year I am not able to do it. The books are getting better and better. I select twenty fine ones and the next mail brings in ten more that cannot be ignored. My book conscience will not permit me to eliminate as many this fall; so with your permission I will devote a little less space to individual selections in order that many more titles may be called to your readers’ attention. And I’ll begin with the best group of picture books (for age six and under) you’ve ever seen in your life. Cordially, M.F.K.
