Three of her books were runners-up for the annual Newbery Medal, the partly autobiographical ''The Silver Pencil'', ''The Bears on Hemlock Mountain'', and ''The Courage of Sarah Noble'', which was also named to the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award list.As the founding editor (in 1934) of Scribner's and Sons Children's Book Division, Dalgliesh published works by award-winning authors and illustrators including Robert A. Heinlein, Marcia Brown, Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, Katherine Milhous, Will James, Leonard Weisgard, and Leo Politi. Her prominence in the field of children's literature led to her being appointed the first president of the Children's Book Council, a national nonprofit trade association of children's book publishers and presses.
