...write a "Golden Book," one of those Simon-and-Schuster productions of our childhood, those books that everybody understood. Head books are best when, like the OZ books, they are written not with heads in mind. Straight things ought always to be preferred by heads; and those things consciously stoney, like black lights and day-glo or the present music of the Doors, ought ever to be shunned.
