The child as the audience for books in the English
language is the subject of this bibliographical study, which had its
origins in an exhibition held at the Morgan in New York. From this
beginning, Felix de Marez Oyens and Brian Alderson have compiled Be Merry and Wise
and shown how certain creative talents, driven by a sense of purpose,
or a wish to make some money, attempted to appeal directly to children,
and how the publishing industry came to realize that this audience
might prove to constitute a profitable market.
