■Weekly Book Review-

Children of Today Have Best Authors Writing for Them

Tly WALTER 1). HICKMAN OMEBODY years ago coined a classic when he yelled, “My i__| Kingdom for a Horse.” I may not be coining a classic, but I loudly cry out, "Make me a child again.” Such an outburst is caused T>y looking over the new list of books for children. This week is being observed all over the country as Children’s Book week. The Indianapolis Public Library is observing the week by giving little book talks to the children in the schools and by a special exhibit of books for children at the library. Miss Elizabeth Ohr of the school department for children of the library tells me that about 32,000 children of the city are patrons of the library, including branches. "We figure that from 80 to So per cent of the children who are able to read are patronizing the library and its branches in the city,” Miss Ohr contends. This is a splendid record and one that the city has a right to be proud of. It shows that the library Is not only creating anew reading public, but training the youth of the city tc lead the right things. One must train his taste 'or reading. If your reading is cheap when young, this tendency toward mental cheapness will he developed with the years. Teach the youngster to read the right things And never before in the history of literature have so mary of the worth while and famous authors have turned their attention toward that great public known as youth. "Good writers have realized that it is an art to write for children,” Mrs. Ohr tells me. BOOK SURVEY The XKA book survey suggests the following books to be read by children this week: Tony Sarg’s Book for Children.
