From "Preface" by James H. Duff and H. Nichols B. Clark:
"Imagination and craft are defining characteristics of important art and valued by collectors of art in any form. In focusing their collection on images of fantasy for children, the Daniels have gathered highly imaginative works by many of the best illustrators who worked during an extraordinarily rich period in art and publishing."
