Balderdash! by Michelle Markel illustrated by Nancy Carpenter*

John Newbery and the Boisterous Birth of Children's Books
This book explains how John Newbery perceived the need for books that would appeal to children and how he pursued publishing books and magazines just for them.
Very interesting! I liked being able to share with my boys the man behind the prestigious book award!
*Highly recommend.
-Borrowed from the library.
