Content:
Essays on authors whose works range from the traditional or reactionary, to the experimental. During this time, the "problem novel" gained ground. Competition from other media, such as the television, influenced the juvenile-book market. During this period a publishers' group was formed to give serious thought to the direction in which juvenile books should go.
