Mini Page
The Mini Page is a syndicated newspaper supplement for children, created by Betty Debnam in 1969 and authored by her and two other writers.〔Oldenburg, Don. "The littlest readers' champion: The Mini Page is 25, but its editor keeps it young." The Washington Post, 1994-08-30, p. C5.〕
==History==
The Mini Page began in August 1969 and appears weekly in hundreds of newspapers in the United States as an offering of Universal Uclick.〔 Its regular features include short articles, puzzles, jokes, and recipes. Universal Uclick has also published several Mini Page spinoff books covering subjects such as the U.S. military, science, the states, history, geography and the environment.〔
The supplement was conceived as a cross between the ''Weekly Reader'' and a newspaper comics section, with an underlying mission of encouraging family-centered reading and literacy.〔 It was the first supplement of its kind when it debuted in August 1969 in the Raleigh, North Carolina ''News and Observer''.〔 The Mini Page's first issue had a "Back to School" theme and included a mini-profile of L.A. Rams quarterback Roman Gabriel and a "Faces in the News" section asking readers to identify a picture of Spiro Agnew.〔
When Debnam created the Mini Page, she had been an elementary school teacher for twelve years and had never drawn before.〔 Initially, she handled all tasks involved in the Mini Page's production, including researching, producing, laying out and editing all the content.〔 She was also responsible for selling advertising, which is no longer included in the supplement. Debnam sold The Mini Page to Universal Uclick in 2007 but continues to consult on the feature.
