The purpose of this study is to analyze fifteen junior novels as to the nature of the literary experience they offer. Such an analysis becomes significant to the teacher of high school English in view of the fact that many junior novels are being published, and school libraries are stocking their shelves with them in increasing numbers. One librarian states that in her library the percentage of junior novels in the total collection as grown from 11.4% in 1951 to 58% in 1956. She also states that "the English teacher, who is less apt to think terms of circulation figures, may question the literary value of much of the current output." / Typescript. / "June, 1959." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Advisor: Dwight L. Burton, Professor Directing Paper. / Includes bibliographical references (leaf 59).
