Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Country's Readers, Vol. 1 The lessons are, as nearly as could be given, actual lessons used in the school-room. An effort has been made to give lessons that are full of life and of interest to children, and at the same time to use all words introduced often enough to fully establish them in the child's Visual and written vocabularies. It is hoped that the lessons will be suggestive of the possibilities of arousing the mental activities of the child through those things which delight his heart. The reading lessons are drawn largely from directed play, by which means the question of ex pression in reading is solved.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Country Reader, Vol. 1: Book One In preparing this American edition of Mr. Buchanan's Country Readers, I have tried throughout to preserve the simple language of the English author. Naturally, many changes were necessary to make the book suitable for our American schools. Volume I is devoted entirely to farm animals, an arrangement which I think is highly desirable. Volume II will deal with the soil and crops. As Mr. Buchanan states in his preface to the English edition, this book is not intended for very young children, but for the older children of both our rural and city schools; children who are able to read and understand the meaning of ordinary English words. The value of reading - especially of reading aloud - in training the young mind is, I think, recognized by all. It is the aim of these readers to assist in this valuable training by presenting correct information about those things around us which we have found to be especially interesting to the child.

Download or read book The Home and Country Readers Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Mary A. Laselle and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Home and Country Readers, Vol. 1 The presentation of a collection of special literature such as that contained in the Home and Country Readers would be opportune at any time; it is doubly opportune just now. The need of educating and intensifying an appreciation of the home as a universal institution absolutely essential to the well-being of individuals and the soundness of our national life; the need of a re-birth of devotion, of resolute determination such as once enveloped and established at untold sacrifice those principles of liberty, equality, justice, fraternity, and human progress which are the very foundation of our democracy; these needs are more clearly and adequately recognized to-day than they have been at any time in a generation. To meet these needs the Home and Country Readers are admirably adapted. Appreciation of Home and Country requires the education of the heart. The feelings must be aroused, the emotions must be stirred, the will must be challenged, in support of the ideals of Home and Country. Such is the peculiar function of the literature of inspiration that these books present. This literature, which forms the larger part of the collection, finds appropriate accompaniment in the highest book of the series in several selections of practical information by foremost authorities on the building, furnishing, managing, and hygiene of the home.

Download or read book Our Country s Readers Vol 5 Classic Reprint written by Leonard Lemmon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-26 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Country's Readers, Vol. 5 The Readers of this series have at least one important distinction: they are composed almost entirely of selections from our own authors. Of the thirty-four pieces in this reader, thirty-two are from American writers. One selec tion is from The Pilgrim's Progress and one is from the Bible. The proportion of foreign and of native literature in American readers has been usually just the reverse of this, giving the great part to foreign writers and a small part to our own writers. And the native selections included have most often been those on which the copyright had expired or that had never been copyrighted. Quite a different plan has been followed here. The first design has been to present our own authors. The ground of choice has been solely one of fitness. Each selection from our native authors has been made on the ground of its representative nature, or of its special application to phases of our own home life. The result is the embodiment of an expensive collection of copyrighted material; but we be lieve the character of this material justifies the expense and labor incurred. In view of the fact that the selections are from Americanauthors, about American subjects, for American youths, it seemed appropriate to call the series Our Country's Readers. The selections presented are from the latest authorized readings, and correspond to the author's approved editions. The grading has been made with the utmost care, both from principle and theory and from actual tests with pupils.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Country's Readers, Vol. 2 AN attempt is made in this, the Second Book of our country's readers, to present material that is interesting to the child. The mere process of get ting thought from the printed page is task enough to tax his powers to the utmost; if we add to the great difficulties of this process, tasks for study in history, science, and the arts, he goes to his reading with aversion. On the other hand, in the world of the imagination and the emotions, he is very much at home. Trailing clouds of glory do we come, as Wordsworth has it. If: we give him sufficient material from this. Magic world of the imagination, he will brave the difficulties of the technical process cheerfully and successfully. Fortunately, this old, gray world of ours has a great storehouse of litera ture simple enough in conception, buoyant enough in spirit, and warm enough in color to fascinate the child. The work of the editor of such a primary book as this, is to make a proper selection from this storehouse and to present it in language simple enough for the child at this stage of his develop ment in the art of reading.

Download or read book Loxfinger written by Sol Weinstein and published by About Comics. This book was released on 2011-08 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Israel Bond may seem like a simple-if-sexy salesman for Mother Margolies' Old World Chicken Soup, but when the Holy Land needs his skills - his quickness with a pun, his second-to-none semitic seduction techniques, and (if absolutely necessary) his abilities at actual espionage - then the man known by the code name Oy-Oy-7 (licensed not only to kill, but to say prayers over the corpse) is there to do what needs be done. In a land surrounded by its enemies, Oy-Oy-7 is called on to guard the nation's great benefactor, the generous but odd Lazarus Loxfinger. Is there more to Loxfinger than meets the eye? Bond aims to find out, even if doing so requires sleeping with dozens of exotic beauties! In the mid-1960s, when Playboy was serializing the adventures of the world's most famous superspy, they interspersed them with the rollicking adventures of Israel's most hilarious weapon, Israel Bond. After the book editions of what the Chicago Tribune called "probably the funniest secret agent parodies ever written" had sold over a million copies, they were allowed to fall out of print. Decades later, all four books in the Israel Bond series are now back in new editions!

The gradation is simple and the vocabulary has been carefully arranged. The sentences, especially in the first half of the book, are short and of the simplest construction.
