Children's Literature
Children's literature or juvenile literature includes stories, books, magazines, and poems that are created for children. Modern children's literature is classified in two different ways: genre or the intended age of the reader. Children's literature can be traced to traditional stories like fairy tales, that have only been identified as children's literature in the eighteenth century, and songs, part of a wider oral tradition, that adults shared with children before publishing existed. The development of early children's literature, before printing was invented, is difficult to trace. Even after printing became widespread, many classic "children's" tales were originally created for adults and later adapted for a younger audience. Since the fifteenth century much literature has been aimed specifically at children, often with a moral or religious message. Children's literature has been shaped by religious sources, like Puritan traditions, or by more philosophical and scientif ...

Norman Munro
Norman Leslie Munro (1842–1894) was a Canadian-American publisher. In 1873 Munro established the New York ''Family Story Paper'', which gained a weekly circulation of 325,000. He also published ''Boys of New York'', ''Our Boys'', ''Munro's Library'', and the American juvenile magazine '' Golden Hours'' in the late 19th century. One of his main writers was H. Irving Hancock. Throughout his life, Munro owned several fast steam yachts including the Herreshoff-designed ''Norwood'', which garnered extensive media attention for its competition with William Randolph Hearst's rival yacht '' Vamoose'' to set speed new records. Munro died on February 24, 1894 in New York City after an appendectomy and was survived by his wife and two children. He is buried in Green-Wood Cemetery. References External links * * Norman L.

Magazines Established In 1888
A magazine is a periodical publication, generally published on a regular schedule (often weekly or monthly), containing a variety of content. They are generally financed by advertising, purchase price, prepaid subscriptions, or by a combination of the three. Definition In the technical sense a ''journal'' has continuous pagination throughout a volume. Thus ''Business Week'', which starts each issue anew with page one, is a magazine, but the '' Journal of Business Communication'', which continues the same sequence of pagination throughout the coterminous year, is a journal. Some professional or trade publications are also peer-reviewed, for example the '' Journal of Accountancy''. Non-peer-reviewed academic or professional publications are generally ''professional magazines''. That a publication calls itself a ''journal'' does not make it a journal in the technical sense; ''The Wall Street Journal'' is actually a newspaper. Etymology The word "magazine" derives from Arabic , th ...
