Photo by Guderian .Youngsters Like Gifts Of Books There are books for all llv family, but none will be more ap predated at Christmas than books given to youngsters who are just beginning to read. "Look, ma." becomes a famil iar phrase as Junior or Sis point with pride to words they recog nize in their new books. A moth er with foresight will purchase these beginner readers for her 6 or 7 year old. The small fry may need help with some words, but once they begin to know the joys of reading, a new world will have opened to them. Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss (Random House), author of. the hilarious "Cat in the Hat' books (still wonderful), is another adventurous tale for those learn ing to read. Instead of the 200 voids Seuss has been playing with in his beginner readers, this new adventure uses only 50 dif ferent words. The story is about Sam-I-Am and a shaggy friend on whom he tries to foist green eggs and ham. Air Around Us (Grosset and Dunlap) tells the story of wind, hurricanes, lightning, thunder, mow, rain and helps to answer the small child's questions in the tame easy-to-read formula that marks other books in the series that include stories of insects, reptile, birds, time, sounds, air ports, rocks and minerals, dino saurs. My Hopping Bunny by Robert Bright (Doubleday) is the story1 of a little boy's purchase of a bunny who turned out to be very unusual. He could hop over the tallest church steeples, but then one day he hopped too high and must.be saved by his young mas ter. For 7 and Older: The "how and why" books (Wonder Books.) These include the how and why of rocks and minerals', electricity, stars, rock ets and missiles, weather. For 8 to 14 Years: The Planet We Live On by Felix Sutton (Grosset and Dunlap) is a fascinating treasury of informa tion about the earth. It describes our glaciers, minerals, deserts, caverns, animals. There is an interesting chapter on primitive cave men and illustrations of cave paintings from the ice age. Over 12 Years: Gods and Heroes adapted by Morris Schreiber (Grosset and: Dunlap) are the stories of fam ous myths and legends of the world. A book for a youngster! who'd like to read about King: Arthur and his Knights and the wonderful legends of other lands. The colorful myths of Greece and! Borne are included.

The "We Were There" series ontinues. (Grosset and Dunlap). Jew books include "On the Santa1 'e Trail," by Ross McLaury Tay or and "At the Opening of the Atomic Era" by James Munves. The books are fiction based on actual happenings, factually ac curate. - i Big Game Hunter by Felix Sut ton (Messner) is the story of Carl Akeley, one of America's foremost big game hunters who did it all in the interest of science. Sutton tells Akeley's adventures in vivid fashion that should have real boy-appeal. Another Biff Brewster mystery adventure is "Brazilian Gold Mine Mystery," and the- perennial fav orite Tom Swift pops up again in "Tom Swift and his Spectro marine Selector." Books of special interest to girls are new editions of the Bobbsey Twins, a new guide to good looks for young girls, "Put Your Best Look Forward," by Glynne, Hil- ier (Doubleday) and "Your Own Room," an interior decoratine guide for girls by Mary Furlong iwoore (orosset and Dunlap.)
