This is a celebration of the innovative, original and sometimes controversial articles that have been found in this magazine over the years. Covering a wealth of issues, from a lighthearted look at "The Permanence of Pooh" to an in-depth discussion of just what it is that makes a "children's classic", plus many encounters with favourite authors along the way, it is a collection which should appeal to both the children's book specialist and the more casual, less academic reader.
