A B C Go! Volume 1 of the 's Collier's Junior Classics - The Young Folks Shelf of Books. Has been lovingly compiled for the youngest, and consists of nursery rhymes, favorite folk tales, best-loved poems, and stories for reading aloud.

Colliers Junior Classics is a series of ten individually indexed volumes of outstanding children's stories and poems compiled for enrichment reading by a distinguished editorial board of children's librarians

Four volumes have been assembled for the intermediate group: Once Upon a Time, a wonderous collection of fables, world folk tales, and modern fairy tales; Magic in the Air, selections from great masterpieces of fantasy; Just Around the Corner, excerpts from warm-hearted stories of other lands; and In Your Own Backyard, selections from stirring books about our own country.

Four additional volumes cater to the interests of more mature boys and girls: Gifts from the Past, memorable selections from world classics; Legends of Long Ago, selections from great myths, epics, and American tall tales; Roads to Greatness, excerpts from biographies of some of the greatest men and women of the world; and Call of Adventure, selections from action and suspense stories of today and yesterday.

Finally, and most unusual of all, is the volume entitled Harvest of Holidays, a feast of stories, poems, documents, and factual material about twenty-two American national and religious holidays. Although perhaps of greatest interest to the intermediate group, Harvest of Holidays will intrigue and delight all ages
