Kunstialbum sisaldab ligi 250 tööd 81-lt kunstnikult, kes on illustreerinud 92 kirjaniku raamatuid. Pildid on jagatud tsüklitesse, nagu kodu, mäng, õppimine jne, mille abil üldistada eesti lapse kuvandi muutumist pea 150 aasta vältel. Et paljude piltide originaalid ei ole säilinud, on reprodel ka erakordne kultuurilooline väärtus. Lisatud on kirjanike ning kunstnike lühielulood.
