Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beacon Third Reader The author has endeavored in this series to present some well-beloved stories as they have been handed down through generations of story-telling people for the delight of their little ones. That these stories have been told again and again is no disadvantage, but is one of their chief charms. Indeed, the fact that they have been retold is proof that they were worth telling in the first place. Children at this age are naturally dramatic. They yearn for tales that possess some plot or clever turning point. They are not satisfied with, and even turn in disgust from, stories of the strictly narrative or "informational" kind. They crave stirring scenes with animated conversations, while the stories in which animals possess the attributes of man particularly appeal to them, possibly because of man's close association with animals during the ages of his development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beacon Second Reader In the "Beacon Second Reader" the author has chosen for his stories only those of recognized literary merit; and while it has been necessary to rearrange and sometimes rewrite them for the purpose of simplification, yet he has endeavored to retain the spirit which has served to endear these ancient tales to the children of all ages. The fairy story appeals particularly to children who are in the second school year. It has been proved by our ablest psychologists that at about this period of development, children are especially susceptible to the stimulus of the old folklore. They are in fact passing through the stage which corresponds to the dawn of the human race, when demons, dragons, fairies, and hobgoblins were as firmly believed in as rivers and mountains. As a test of this theory the author asked hundreds of second-grade and third-grade school children to recall the stories which they had read during the preceding year, and to express their preferences. The choice of more than ninety percent proved to be either folklore stories, pure and simple, or such tales as contained the folklore element.

Book excerpt: The Beacon Second Reader is a collection of classical fairy tales arranged by James H. Fassett. Excerpt: "There was once an old goat who had seven little kids. She loved them all as much as any mother ever loved her children. One day the old goat wished to go into the woods to get food for her kids. Before she started she called them all to her and said: "Dear children, I am going into the woods. Now do not open the door while I am away. If the old wolf should get into our hut, he would eat you all up, and not a hair would be left. You can easily tell him by his rough voice and his black feet." "Dear mother," cried all the young kids, "we will be very careful not to let the old wolf in. You need not think of us at all, for we shall be quite safe." So the old goat went on her way into the dark woods. She had not been gone long when there came a loud rap at the door, and a voice cried: "Open the door, my dear children. I have something here for each of you." But the young kids knew by the rough voice that this was the old wolf."

Book excerpt: NEW PRINT WITH PROFESSIONAL TYPE-SET IN CONTRAST TO SCANNED PRINTS OFFERED BY OTHERS The Beacon Second Reader This book is a result of an effort made by us towards making a contribution to the preservation and repair of original classic literature. In an attempt to preserve, improve and recreate the original content, we have worked towards: 1. Type-setting & Reformatting: The complete work has been re-designed via professional layout, formatting and type-setting tools to re-create the same edition with rich typography, graphics, high quality images, and table elements, giving our readers the feel of holding a 'fresh and newly' reprinted and/or revised edition, as opposed to other scanned & printed (Optical Character Recognition - OCR) reproductions. 2. Correction of imperfections: As the work was re-created from the scratch, therefore, it was vetted to rectify certain conventional norms with regard to typographical mistakes, hyphenations, punctuations, blurred images, missing content/pages, and/or other related subject matters, upon our consideration. Every attempt was made to rectify the imperfections related to omitted constructs in the original edition via other references. However, a few of such imperfections which could not be rectified due to intentional\unintentional omission of content in the original edition, were inherited and preserved from the original work to maintain the authenticity and construct, relevant to the work. We believe that this work holds historical, cultural and/or intellectual importance in the literary works community, therefore despite the oddities, we accounted the work for print as a part of our continuing effort towards preservation of literary work and our contribution towards the development of the society as a whole, driven by our beliefs. We are grateful to our readers for putting their faith in us and accepting our imperfections with regard to preservation of the historical content. HAPPY READING!

They must be introduced as soon as possible to stories and books which they can understand and enjoy. The Third Reader is distinctly a reading book. By this time the pupil has learned how to read and has begun to reflect and to have wider and more varied interests. He has a curiosity to know something of other countries, to hear folk tales and fairy stories, to read of the lives of heroes and their deeds. He has a love of animals, and is beginning to feel the music and the impulses of good poetry. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The choice of more than ninety per cent proved to be either folklore stories, pure and simple, or such tales as contained the folklore element. To be sure, children like other stories, but they respond at once with sparkling eyes and animated voices when the fairy tale is suggested. How unwise, therefore, it is to neglect this powerful stimulus which lies ready at our hands! Even a pupil who is naturally slow will wade painfully and laboriously through a fairy story, while he would throw down in disgust an account of the sprouting of the bean or the mining of coal.It can hardly be questioned, moreover, that the real culture which the child derives from these literary classics is far greater than that which he would gain from the "information" stories so common in the average second and third readers.
Download or read book The New Century Third Reader Classic Reprint written by H. S. Tibbits and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Century Third Reader This volume has been prepared with the greatest care. The design has been to use only such matter as will please, attract, interest, and instruct the pupil. Each article has been selected with a view to some particular literary merit of its own. As the pupil has now reached the period of his life when he begins to realize that books may be his friends, our object has been to place before him reading matter of such high quality that he will involuntarily form a taste for good literature. The subject-matter of this book covers a wide range of thought and adjusts itself very carefully to the sympathies of childhood. The friendships which the child is thus enabled to form with good authors, will be of inestimable value to him in after life. The mind of the pupil of this age is in the formative period and his tastes are easily directed toward high ideals. To this end careful thought has been given to the selection of matter which can not fail to lead the child to turn unconsciously toward the best things in the life about him, and eventually to branch out into the larger fields beyond. The true teachers will always keep in sight this great purpose in school reading - to so awaken the interest and kindle the enthusiasm of the child that the oral expression will conform to the dramatic requirements of the article.

The literature supplied in such books should be sane, pure, wholesome, and stimulating. It should present models of thought, examples of simple but heroic living, and in every way prepare the children to strive after what is worthy, rather than to drift in the direction in which a chance current of life may lead them.
