About this book

ERIC ED622320: The Merrill Readers. Second Reader

Author: ERIC

Year: 1915

There is no more direct way to the interest of children in the second school year than through the story. All thought of drudgery vanishes and the lesson is a real source of delight when the reading book furnishes one good story after another. This "Second Reader," therefore, is a book of stories -- stories in prose and verse. Fairy tales, fables, and myths form a large part of the book, but there are also many stories of children in real life. All the stories are rich in the qualities that stimulate the imagination and help to establish ideals which children can understand and appreciate. Special attention has been given to the need of telling the stories in a simple, direct style that children can read with ease and pleasure.
