TEEN-AGE TREASURY OF GOOD HUMOR

This text is precisely what its title suggests. It contains within it a vast sampling of humorous material--Thurber, Shulman, Tarkington, Dickens, Don Marquis, Jane Austen, Benchley, Mencken--appropriate for the teen age reader. Not only are the writers here capable of bringing about various degrees of laughter but they represent some of the best craftsmen of modern English writing. A refreshing departure from the somewhat determinedly serious bill of fare currently accessible to the teen-age reader.
