NEW YORK—U(P.)—Once upon a time, after television became a national pastime, some publishers of children's books feared Junior's reading days were over.
But the nation's children are bigger bookworms than ever, said P. Edward Ernest, vice president in charge of children's picture books at Grosset and Dunlap Publishing Co.
Mr. Ernest said children's book sales are much greater than they were before television. In the past 10 years, publishers have brought out a whole raft of 25 cent picture books. In this price bracket alone the industry has sold a record-breaking 800 million volumes. They now are snapped up at the rate of 900 million a year.
Mr. Ernest's company reports an astronomical sale of a Davy Crockett story, 3 million copies, gone before you could say, "king of the wild frontier."
