"Children's Authors and Illustrators", now in its third edition, provides quick and easy access to biographical information on approximately 20,000 persons found in more than 275 reference books. CA & I is, therefore, a research aid for anyone interested in the study of children's literature - students from upper elementary school through college, teachers, librarians, and general researchers. CA & I's primary aim is to be as comprehensive as possible, not only in terms of the audience it hopes to serve, but also in terms of the writers and artists it lists. CA & I aims to include all known writers and illustrators of children's books whose work is accessible in the English language. In the case of those prominent authors and illustrators for whom biographical information is readily - even abundantly - available, CA & I conveniently consolidates references to a wide variety of sources. For the less prominent person, CA & I often provides the clue to a rare, hard-to-find biography.
