We Too Were Children, Mr. Barrie

"After years of finding children’s books tucked away in authors’ bibliographies (Graham Greene wrote children’s books!), followed by quick disappointment (how can they be out of print?), I realized that I was having this same frustrating revelation over and over. And when I would bring these discoveries up with my friends, they would have the same reaction (John Updike wrote children’s books! How can they be out of print?) The goal of this blog is to make more widely known these much-coveted literary rarities (and perhaps stir up enough interest to bring them back into print)."
