Book Description
Excerpt from Holiday Rambles, or Peeps Into the Book of Nature Oh' dear mamma, said George, springing into his mother's arms, how delighted I am to see you, and Agnes, and Helen, and all at my own dear home. After these mutual congratulations were ended, the boys found time to return the caresses of a beautiful Newfoundland dog, named Neptune. He was a great favourite, and expressed his delight by jumping upon his young masters, and rolling over and over a pretty little spaniel, called Rover, who was rather annoyed by the rough gambols of his companion. In due time, however, they quietly seated themselves to enjoy some refreshment after their journey, and to hear and relate what had happened during their absence. After luncheon, the children went out to visit the garden, and their numerous pets. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Pages : 735
Book Description
A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.

Book Description
Excerpt from All the Year Round: A Nature Reader It is not the purpose of the author of this series to offer, or even suggest, any rules for its use. If anything is established in education, it is the fact that aside from certain underlying principles and general directions, each teacher must be a rule unto herself. The methods which the author and her colleagues have found successful might be entirely out of harmony with an equally good system in some other city. It is to be presumed, however, that if this series of nature-stories should be so fortunate as to be received with favor by the educational public, it will occasionally find its way into the hands of some teachers who are not familiar with nature-work as developed in large cities, and well-organized school systems. To these it may be interesting and helpful to know just "how it has been done" in the schools out of which these stories grew, and in which they have been used. Indeed, by way of comparison and suggestion, it may also be of assistance to those who have passed through the experimental stage and have wrought out a system of their own.
