[OUP] has cast its net wide and brought a number of them into a new series--the Oxford Children's Library at the price of 5s." --"Limits of the Imagination" by Mary Crozier, The Manchester Guardian 1959-03-20 p12 Taking those counts for granted, WorldCat records suggest that all of #1-16 were published during 1958 and the next six alone #17-22 during 1959.
