The bibliographer notes in her Preface: "In recent years, there has been an increasing number of books for young children dealing with the emotional aspects of a child's life. Among them are books designed to help children and their parents cope with a wide range of emotionally stressful situations, from death, divorce, and hospitalization to everyday problems like going to sleep, lack of self-confidence; shyness, jealousy, and difficulty in getting along with other children. Others concern happier experiences like friendship and expressions of love within the family. This bibliography is a guide to those books in the affective area. " . Very good .
