Making Americans: Children's Literature from 1930 to 1960
Although some critics have argued that the books published in the US between the 1930s and 1960s offered a vision of a safe, secure, simple world without injustice or unhappy endings, Gary D. Schmidt shows that the progressive political agenda shared by many Americans who wrote, illustrated, published, and taught children's books had a powerful effect.
