Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Child's Romance, Vol. 1 It is with a kind of fear that I approach the enigma of my impressions at the beginning of life, doubting whether indeed I felt them myself, or whether they were not, rather, remoter memories mysteriously transmitted. I feel a sort of religious reluctance to sound those depths. On emerging from primeval night my mind did not grow gradually to the light by progressive gleams, but by sudden flashes of illumination, which abruptly dilated my childish eyes and fixed me in watchful reveries, and which then vanished, plunging me once more into the total unconsciousness of little new-born animals, of infant plants that have just begun to sprout.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Child of the Menhir, Vol. 1: A Novel Good wine needs no bush, says Chaucer; and a story fit for anything should tell its own tale without much introduction. Whether this be bad or good remains to be seen; it is the materials, not the story itself, which I wish to introduce. These were in part gathered during a Visit to Brittany - that province where romance and superstition linger, perhaps, more lovingly than in any other corner of Nineteenth Century Europe, - but for some I am indebted to other sources.

Download or read book Everyday Graces written by Karen Santorum and published by ISI Books. This book was released on 2003-04-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Bestseller, Featuring a Brand-New Introduction by Karen Santorum As a mother, Karen Santorum grew frustrated by her inability to find a book of manners that instructed through engaging stories and poems rather than by dull lists of dos and don'ts. She set out to solve the problem. The result is this wonderfully rich and instructive anthology. A national bestseller, Everyday Graces has become a beloved feature in homes, schools, churches, and libraries across America. It speaks to the fact that manners are seldom discussed anymore—and are practiced even less. Good manners are a prerequisite for the growth of moral character; they are the habits of conduct by which we express in the most ordinary circumstances our fundamental respect for others, whether parents, friends, colleagues, or strangers. Under such headings as "Honor Your Mother and Father," "Please, Thank You, and Other Kind Words," "Be Considerate at the Table," "Good Sportsmanship," and "Respecting Our Country," Everyday Graces gathers stories and poems that will develop and enrich the moral imagination. This marvelous anthology features classic selections from such well-known authors as Hans Christian Andersen, Beatrix Potter, Mark Twain, Frances Hodgson Burnett, C. S. Lewis, Max Lucado, and Arnold Lobel, as well as forgotten gems that deserve a new hearing. Find out why Everyday Graces has struck a chord with tens of thousands of families. Both inviting and informative, this book helps instill good manners in our children—and takes a stand against the decline in civility and the coarsening of our common life.
Download or read book The Heart of Oak Books Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Charles Eliot Norton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heart of Oak Books, Vol. 1 A taste for good reading is an acquisition the worth of which is hardly to be overestimated; and yet a majority Of children, even of those favored by circumstance, grow up without it. This defect is due partly to the fault or ignorance Of parents and teachers; partly, also, to the want, in many cases, of the proper means of cultivation. For this taste, like most others, is usually not so much a gift of nature as a product of cultivation. A wide difference exists, indeed, in chil dren in respect to their natural inclination for reading, but there are few in whom it cannot be more or less developed by careful and judicious training. This training should begin very early. Even before the child has learned the alphabet, his mother's lullaby or his nurse's song may have begun the attuning of his ear to the melodies of verse, and the quickening of his mind with pleasant fancies. As he grows older, his first reading should be made attractive to him by its ease and entertainment. The reading lesson should never be hard or dull; nor should it be made the occasion for instruction in any specific branch of knowl edge. The essential thing is that in beginning to learn to read the child should like what he reads or hears read, and that the matter should be of a sort to fix itself in his mind without wearisome effort.
