B. White <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theparisreview.org\/interviews\/4155\/the-art-of-the-essay-no-1-e-b-white\">told this magazine in 1969<\/a>. \u201cChildren are \u2026 the most attentive, curious, eager, observant, sensitive, quick, and generally congenial readers on earth. They accept, almost without question, anything you present them with, as long as it is presented honestly, fearlessly, and clearly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We couldn\u2019t agree more. That\u2019s why we\u2019re proud to announce <em>The Paris Review for Young Readers<\/em>, the first magazine that writes <em>up <\/em>to children. (No offense to <em>Cricket<\/em> or <em>Highlights<\/em>.) Imagine a space for children\u2019s literature that doesn\u2019t condescend, cosset, or coarsen; that\u2019s free of easy jokes and derivative fantasy; that invites open discussion and abundant imagination. A space, in other words, that offers the same caliber of fiction, poetry, art, and interviews you expect from <em>The Paris Review<\/em>, for readers age eight to twelve.<\/p>\n<p>Today marks the release of <em>TPRFYR<\/em>\u2019s first issue, and we think the table of contents below speaks for itself. Among its poetry and fiction, you\u2019ll find old classics and new favorites\u2014plus some puzzles, quizzes, and advice columns inspired by literature. There\u2019s a portfolio of drawings from Richard Scarry\u2019s lost years, and, at the center of it all, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theparisreview.org\/the-art-of-fiction-carle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">an interview with Eric Carle<\/a>, the author of <em>The Very Hungry Caterpillar<\/em>. \u201cA child is an almost platonic reader,\u201d Carle says. \u201cHis imagination remains unbounded.\u201d <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>We hope you\u2019ll like what you see in our sister quarterly.
