36. THE CASE OF THE UNAPPRECIATED SCIENCE BOOK.

Author

Archer, Marguerite P.

Subjects
ILLUSTRATED children's books, CHILDREN'S literature, LIFE sciences literature, NONFICTION, LITERATURE & photography, INSECTS
Abstract

The article discusses the unpopularity of the book "The Tale of the White-Faced Hornet," written and illustrated by Henry B. Kane. In the 1951 Children's Catalog, the book is the only one listed as a pictorial work under the heading of insects and it is also the only book on a particular insect listed under the same heading. It received positive reviews from the periodicals "The Saturday Review" and "The New York Times." The author links the book's unpopularity with the following factors: lesser appeal of its title or subject, age levels for which the text and the format are appropriate, and the rarity of the photographic illustrations in children's books.
