Scope and Content

Correspondence with Ursula Moray Williams from the Junior Literary Guild, New York [now the Junior Library Guild], a children's version of the Literary Guild, which distributed selected current books across America. Children received the books directly, wore membership pins, and often formed reading clubs. The Junior Guild's monthly magazine, 'Young Wings', included poems, features about the books and their authors, and letters from readers. This correspondence regards the inclusion of 'No Ponies for Miss Pobjoy' and 'Bogwoppit' on the Guild's list of books, and requests biographical information from Williams for inclusion in their biographical booklet to accompany the books.
