"Children's Books and Reading" by Montrose Jonas Moses is a scholarly examination of the evolution and significance of children's literature written in the early 20th century. The book explores the historical development of children's literature, the changing nature of children's reading, and the roles of various stakeholders such as educators, librarians, and parents in promoting quality literature for young audiences. It likely aims to unpack the complexities and responsibilities tied to the curation and creation of literature designed for children. The opening of the text introduces the overarching issue in children's literature, highlighting the challenges of distinguishing valuable works from mediocrity. Moses emphasizes the importance of understanding the historical context and responsibilities associated with children's reading, arguing that the right literature is essential for nurturing a child's imagination and moral development. He discusses the evolution of children's books, starting from early moral tales to contemporary concerns about quality and appeal in literature tailored for younger readers. Moses advocates for a thoughtful, discerning approach to children's literature, recognizing the profound impact it has on a child's growth and education. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
