Dear Genius: The Letters of Ursula Nordstrom by Leonard S. Marcus

4.0

Nordstorm was the children's book editor at Harper for decades. She was E. B. White's editor. She discovered Maurice Sendak. And the list just goes on. Her letters were charming and insightful and revealed how a good editor pushes and critiques and just gets the job done. And it was all enough to make me want to camp out in the children's section of the library for a few days and reread old favorites and discover new ones.
