"A part of UNESCO's efforts within the framework of the International Year of the Child, this small book is both an explanation of standard book publishing procedures intended for the uninitiated in the Third World and, more instructively and interestingly to the initiated, discussions by Third World citizens who work with children's books as to the state of the children's book publishing industry in their countries. Trade and educational books are considered. In conclusion is a bibliography of the works mentioned." (Eleanor Blum, Frances G. Wilhoit: Mass media bibliography. 3rd ed. Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1990 Nr. 1090)
