Wilson Library Bulletin
“While most publications appearing here are relatively new ones, we couldn’t help but mention one that’s been around for many years: Stone Soup. What’s so unusual? It’s a literary magazine entirely written by children for 4th- to 8th-graders, and the art, stories, and poetry are quite special — a likely candidate for your children’s collection.”
Magazines for School Libraries
“This is a thoughtfully conceived magazine that offers quality literature and creative encouragement to aspiring authors and artists.”
