Aestheticism means that books are clean and tidy, any damage to books is repaired carefully

and this can successfully be done with children. If necessary, books are given wrapping
paper, a worn book actually shows it is worth reading and read by many. The younger the

children, the more important illustrations become. Teachers should not only rely on their

taste when choosing illustrations, a range of illustration styles exist, and some, which from
an adult’s point of view are not ‘pretty’, might be extremely attractive and engaging for a

child.
