A wide-ranging anthology introducing children to the wealth of children's classics, from A CHRISTMAS CAROL to ANNE OF GREEN GABLES, offering an ideal opportunity to use the 'tasters' as a guide to their book choice. Each extract is satisfying and meaningful in its own right. The collection is chronologically organised, showing the development of children's literature over the last century.
The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
