First Step Into Outside
Those unobtrusive teachers, the librarians, have made an
important discovery. In a small way, it can make for amity
and good will. The International Committee of the Children’s
Library Association has found a growing interest here and i
abroad in children'* books as a mean* of cultural exchange. {
A child who reads about another in a strange land, whose j
life and thoughts are very like his own. though his name is i
strange, has taken the first step toward an appreciation of
foreign people. He is on the way to international understand-
ing, when ne reads unrecognizable words set in unfamiliar
type and enjoys illustrations with a different flavor. It is a
glimpse into the outside world which can have a lasting in-
fluence.

And in this bit of verse lies the
answer to why I write piffle ra-

This is the way the poem goes'

They want full measure of your

There are none to decline your

Hut alone you must drink life's
gall."
