Description
Excerpt from Reading-Literature: First Reader; Adapted and Graded
For years the most progressive educators have been urging that only good literature should be used in school readers. Some authors of primers and first readers have thought it impossible to provide such material Within the vocabulary that beginners can learn With ease. Others have used a little real literature with a large amount of unrelated and uninteresting material specially prepared for the sake of word repetition and phonic drill.
Experience proves that all children are interested in and enjoy the simple folk tales, Which are the literary products of many minds, and Which have survived the centuries because they represent universal human experiences and satisfy certain common needs of childhood. Through count less repetitions, from one generation to another, they have assumed a form marked by simplicity and literary charm.
