Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Little Nature Studies for Little People, Vol. 2: From the Essays of John Burroughs When Little Nature Studies was first edited it was designed only as a book to be placed in the hands of children in the first year´s work at school, as an aid to the teacher to create and cultivate in her pupils a love for nature, and to induce in them the naturalist´s careful method of observation. It was presumed that the child would incidentally learn to read while learning to observe and think, since the simple monosyllabic sentences of John Burroughs´s elegant diction unconsciously carried with them all the simplicity and other desirable elements so eagerly sought by professional manufacturers of first-reader and primer reading-matter combined with the yet more desirable qualities of profound insight and masterful strength. As education progresses in our country, as the public mind awakens to the importance of managing a child´s time in school with thrift and in such manlier that his ability may be conserved, as educators acquire a quickened pedagogical sense, the inane puerility of the reading-matter forced upon children in the last few decades will, more and more, arouse contempt and aggressive opposition.
