Notable Canadian Children's Books.

This annotated bibliography dealing with Canadian children's books aims to show the historical development of the literature. Included within the bibliography are: (1) notable Canadian books from the eighteenth century to the modern period, (2) lists of books which were awarded a bronze medal for the years 1947-1975, and (3) a list of fiction for the young French Canadian. Although historically Canadian children's literature has been sparse, the notable improvement of late in the quality of writing, illustration, and overall design and production is encouraging. Introductory materials are in both French and English; parts 1 and 2 of the bibliography are in English, and part 3 is in French. (AP)
