Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Young Reader: To Go With the Spelling Book This little book I have compiled at the request of the publishers, and at the suggestion of several teachers, whose opinions, founded as they are upon experience, I cannot but respect. It has been thought, that even the simplest lessons, in ´The Introduction to the National Reader,´ require a higher degree of advancement, in the art of reading, and a greater maturity of mind, than can be reason ably expected in very young children. And it is certainly, desirable that those, who have just enlisted in the service of letters, and are doomed by their destiny severe´ to be inspecting and reviewing, for a good part of each day, columns of words drawn up in rank and file, having no idea connected with them except that of the uniform in which they are paraded, and that of the chiming of their names at roll-call, should, for a part of the day, at least, be allowed to seek relaxation, by exercising themselves with words that are drawn together by sense, rather than by sound, and are addressed not to the eye only, but to the mind. This book, then, is intended as a companion for the Spelling Book; that, when the children are tired of that, - as, if I rightly remember the liveliness of my own interest in that manual, it may be expected that they sometimes will be, - they may, by way of variety, take up this. It is hoped that they will find in it something to interest, something to instruct, and nothing to injure them.
