Lloyd Alexander Quotes

I Had Been Reading Children's Books All My Life And Saw Them Not As Minor Amusements But As Part Of The Whole Literary Mainstream; Not As "juveniles" Or "kiddie Lit," One Of The Most Demeaning Terms In The Scholastic Jargon.
My Belief Was, And Is, That The Child's Book Is A Unique And Valid Art Form; A Means Of Dealing With Things Which Cannot Be Dealt With Quite As Well In Any Other Way. There Is, I'm Convinced, No Inner, Qualitative Difference Between Writing For Adults And Writing For Children. The Raw Materials Are The Same For Both: The Human Condition And Our Response To It.
