Childcraft, The How and Why Library

Today's vintage children's book is Volume 12 of the Childcraft Library. My set of Childcraft, The How and Why Library, is a 1972 edition. It was published by the Field Enterprises Educational Corporation. Books like these can have a wealth of
illustrations and I love looking at them.

  1. Love it! So you have an entire set of Childcraft? I have just one volume that I picked up at a used book sale - I did a post about it - it's a book of poetry and it has such good illustrations too!

  3. Oh man, I love the Child craft series of books. We have a few of the same vintage that we picked up from an opportunity shop in the country. They are packed with beautiful illustrations and they have a sense of adventure and nostalgia about them that takes me back to being a kid. But best of all, they are loaded with cools stuff to do with our boys:)
