"INFANTICIPATING”
The publishers inform us that more than 175,000 copies of BET IT’S A BOY (Angus and Robertson, 4s 6d) have been sold in the United States. One can believe if, for this story without words, told in fifty drawings by Betty Bacon Blunt, is a simple and eloquent statement of the emotions of the young couple during the anxious, hopeful, worrying, desperate, and finally rapturous experience which adds one (or perhaps two) members to the family circle. The artist’s line is full of humour, but also of sympathetic observation. Her drawings will delight and touch both those who have knowledge behind them and those whose wisdom is yet to be gained of the memorable, mysterious months before the arrival of ’ the first-born.
