[June 1947] Paperback, 91 pages. Condition of binding: Creases, old stains, age toning, piece missing from top left corner (same with top of spine, several pages). Stamp of Child Welfare League of America on half-title page. Edges toned, as expected. Internally: Pages are clear and readable. Free of bookplates and stickers, writing, underlines and page tears. Overall, Good (Very Good internally). This book is a step back in time, a wonderful read on what experts believed about children, teens, and juveniles in the late 1940s (included are crazy ideas, naïve beliefs, and unsound thinking - but this is what many experts believed in the 1940s). The goal of the guidebook was to give housemothers and housefathers in children's institutions guidelines and insights. It deals with the many problems and challenges encountered in raising other people's children. It includes practical suggestions (remember this was the 1940s!) and gives the reader new insights into the why and how of relationships. Every teacher, counselor, psychologist, therapist, and child specialist should read this booklet - see how far we've come since the 1940s. Fascinating.
