 A Child's Grace In photographs by Harold Burdekin The art of the photographer is seen at its best when the camera catches the unstudied and appealing attitudes of small children. Mr Burdekin has hit upon the idea of illustrating the Grace by Mrs Leatham : Thank you for the world so sweet, Thank you for the birds that sing, Thank you for the food we eat, Thank you, God, for everything, supplemented by further appropriate verses by Dr Claxton, and with nearly thirty lovely photographic studies has made a perfect picture book for small children.
