Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nature Myths and Stories for Little Children For instance the child has been observing, read ing, and writing about -the sun, the moon, the direction of the wind, the trees, the owers, or the forces that are acting around him. He has had the songs, poems, and pictures connected with these lessons to further enhance his thought, inter est, and observation. He is now given a beautiful myth. He is not expected to interpret it. It is presented for the same purpose that a good picture is placed before him. He feels its beauty, but does not analyze it. If, through his observation or something in his experience, he does see a meaning in the story he has entered a new world of life and beauty. Then comes the question to every thoughtful teacher, Can the repetition of words necessary to the growth of the child's vocabulary be obtained in this way? This may be accomplished if the teacher in plan ning her year's work, sees a close relation between the science, literature, and number work, so that the same words are always recurring, and the interest in each line of work is constant and ever increasing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Nature Myths The subject-matter is of permanent value, culled from the folk-lore of the primitive races; the vocab ulary, based upon that of the Hiawatha Primer, is increased gradually, and the new words and phrases will add to the child's power of expression. The naive explanations of the phenomena of nature given by the primitive races appeal to the child's wonder about the same phenomena, and he is pleased and interested. These myths will gratify the child's desire for complete stories, and their intrinsic merit makes them valuable for oral reproduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FEELING the great need of stories founded upon good literature, which are within the comprehension of little children, I have written the following stories, hoping that they may suggest to primary teachers the great wealth of material within our reach. Many teachers, who firmly believe that reading should be something more than mere word-getting while the child's reading habit is forming, are practically helpless without the use of a printing press. We will all agree that myths and fables are usually beautiful truths clothed in fancy, and the dress is almost always simple and transparent. Who can study these myths and not feel that nature has a new language for him, and that though the tales may be thousands of years old, they are quite as true as they were in the days of Homer. If the trees and the flowers, the clouds and the wind, all tell wonderful stories to the child he has sources of happiness of which no power can deprive him. And when we consider that here, too, is the key which unlocks so much of the best in art and literature, we feel that we cannot rank too highly the importance of the myth in the primary schoolroom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Nature Myths The stories of this book have been chosen for the purpose of showing how the early Red Men accounted for the phenomena of nature the presence of the birds, the moaning of the wind, the whispering of the leaves. The nature myths of the North American Indian are full of poetry, and occasionally of a rich humor. In retelling the stories for children the author has sought to retain the original spirit of the tales, and through them to give to the reader a better understanding of the inner life and thought of the primitive Red Man at his best. The tales have been gathered from many sources, and are representative of many tribes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nature Myths and Stories This is a completely revised and enlarged edition of "Nature Myths and Stories," first published in 1892. In it I have retold favorite myths so that children may read them and enjoy them for themselves, and I have added stories that may suggest to teachers the wealth of good material within reach, and encourage them to form the habit of going to the best original sources, such as folklore, mythology, the Bible, and great poetry for help in the construction and telling of stories. I believe that a teacher should put enough of her own impulse to create into her story writing or story telling to make it a delight to herself as well as to her children. There are real dangers in adapting myths to children, yet the difficulties add to a teacher's satisfaction in the worth-while effort, and if she is sensitive to the emotional reactions of children, there is constant incentive to growth and improvement in the great art of telling stories which every teacher of little children should master as a first essential of her profession. The myths should be selected, first of all, as good literature. They should be stories which the children will love all their lives.
