Children Books: Their Importance & Popularity
Children love to read books and consider them to be an important source of information and knowledge. There is a special category of books for them, popularly known as children books which cover Juvenile Fiction, Comics & Graphic novels etc. If book reading is inculcated as a habit early on, children tend to enjoy books and find them to be a great company to be with. They not only see them as a source of information and education but also for joy & entertainment. For years we as children have enjoyed all the timeless tales from the ancient epics, fairy tales, fables and Grandma Stories which have always been the favorite.
Books help in sparking the imagination of children which further helps them to be creative and better understand the concepts of various subjects. Book reading has also proven to help in application of concepts in their regular curriculum. Books are the best friend of readers, and these readers vary from all age groups having different taste of reading. Also, the market is flooded with the children books ranging from fiction to non-fiction. These books focus on two concepts namely – entertainment & education. The lessons in the book have to be presented in that interactive manner so that children’s don’t loose their interest between the lessons and always be curious to know further part of story.
When we are discussing about children books, they are not only popular among the children, whereas adults also find them interesting. Many a work of prolific writers like R. K Narayan’s “Swami and Friends”, Ruskin Bond’s “The Blue Umbrella”, Phillip Pullman’s “The Amber Spyglass” etc have been all time classics. Meanwhile, J.K Rowling’s “Harry Potter Series” have received the considerable recognition from all the parts of world. Amar Chitra Katha & Tinkle comics still continue to be popular and are now expanding into various other mediums.
The Children books cover the topics on various subjects such as rhymes, exciting stories, fables of fantasy and much more. Children love engaging pictures, with characters that they relate to or sketch themselves in their free time, so the books are designed in that manner.

12 Million Black Voices $1.39 12 Million Black Voices, first published in 1941, combines Wright’s prose with startling photographs selected by Edwin Rosskam from the Security Farm Administration files compiled during the Great Depression. The photographs include works by such giants as Walker Evans, Dorothea Lange, and Arthur Rothstein. From crowded, rundown farm shacks to Harlem storefront churches, the photos depict the lives of black people in 1930s America—their misery and weariness under rural poverty, their spiritual strength, and their lives in northern ghettos. Wright’s accompanying text eloquently narrates the story of these 90 pictures and delivers a powerful commentary on the origins and history of black oppression in this country. Also included are new prefaces by Douglas Brinkley, Noel Ignatiev, and Michael Eric Dyson. “Among all the works of Wright, 12 Million Black Voices stands out as a work of poetry, … passion, … and of love.”—David Bradley “A more eloquent statement of its kind could hardly have been devised.”—The New York Times Book Review |

While he was sitting there he began to sing : “Praise God from whom all blessings flow, Praise Him all creatures here below.” ” What are you doing up there ? ” asked the priests, who stood below. ” I am praising the true God,” replied the missionary. Fujiyama I wonder what you have in your house that has come from Japan — fans ? screens ? pictures ? dainty bits of porcelain ? odd pieces of beautiful lacquer ware ? Perhaps, if you will look, you will find on some of these things the picture of a grand old mountain, with its great peak capped with snow. This is Fujiyama, the sacred mountain of Japan. It is the highest mountain in the empire, and so beautiful that it is the pride of every Japanese. So dearly do they love it that they paint it on everything they use. Pictures of it are printed on the cotton cloth the poor peoplewear, and woven into the costly silken garments of the rich. Fujiyama, or Mt. Fuji as we would call it, for yama means mountain, was once an active volcano, and the whole upper part of it is nothing but a mass of lava and ashes. It is this that gives it the peculiar purplish colour we see in all the pictures.

His early career as an artist was typical of the struggles and handicaps that so often beset art students with more talent than money. One of eight children in a small house in Philadelphia, where refinement and a love for music were dominant traits, he worked on his wood-engraving within sound of his sisters’ sweet voices. A young law student, who had his home in the Cole family, writes of Thomas: “He has his little workbench put up in our room, under the window sill, — we sat with our backs to each other; at intervals he whistled and sang, then laid aside the tool — took up his flute, which was his constant companion, and played some air.” A longing for the country was stirring in the -, a heart of the young artist until, fired by tales of a travelling artist, he slung his green bag over his shoulder one October day and was off for the land of nowhere. Indian summer was at hand. And as he trudged up the Hudson River valley the gaily decked maples and brilliant-hued sumachs, gladdening the deep green still lingering in the grass and undergrowth, beckoned him on. When he reached the village of Catskill, bordering the foothills of the mountains, his real joy began. His own brush tells the story of what he saw “In the Catskills” (Fig. 12), Metropolitan Museum of Art. Heopened the way and many other young artists followed in his footsteps. It was the sale of his early pictures of the Catskills and the good will of Trumbull and other artists that made possible a trip to England and access to the studios of Lawrence and Turner.

Arthur Elgort: Camera Crazy $22.59 For the past 30 years, I’ve been taking photos of people with cameras when on location, at home, and in my studio. During this time my camera collection has grown to over one hundred, and I still use every one of them! I got my first in 1965: a Nikon F. Next was a Leica M-2 with a Summicron 35mm lens. Soon after I moved into larger formats. First came a Graflex 4 x 5 and a Rolleiflex. Then Hasselblads, Linhofs and Mamiyas. My most recent purchase is a digital Olympus that I love to use for personal work. They are all close friends. I am truly camera crazy! I think the pictures in this book reflect that I am not the only one! —Arthur ElgortA master of the snapshot aesthetic, Arthur Elgort is one of the most famous camera-toting people in the world. In Camera Crazy, he takes pictures of other camera-toting people, from children to supermodels, from strangers back to himself. There’s Cindy Crawford and Richard Gere, cameras at the ready. There’s a crowd of paparazzi. It’s an endless and ever-growing sea of lenses, this camera crazy culture of ours. Sometimes it seems as if we can’t even see unless it’s through a lens! And who better to capture the contemporary zeitgeist than the maestro of the framed moment: Arthur Elgort. |
