Children’s Book Week
■ Sir,—The last sentence of your editorial on Monday was: “Children, like adults want their reading to deal with things that are relevant to themselves." If this is true (which I doubt), it seems to me to reflect a colossal failure of both imagination and individuality. Children and adults must be very unsure of who they themselves are.—Yours, etc., J. G A. POCOCK. August 24, 1965.
