Book Description
Excerpt from Old-Time Stories F the eleven tales which the present volume com prises, the first eight are from the master - hand of Charles Perrault. Charles Perrault (1628-1703) enjoyed much distinction in his day, and is familiar to students of French literature for the prominent part that he played in the famous Quarrel of the Ancients and Modems, which so keenly occupied French men of letters in the latter part of the seventeenth century. But his fame to-day rests upon his authorship of the traditional Tales of Mother Goose or Stories of Olden Times, and so long as there are children to listen spellbound to the adventures of Cinder ella, Red Riding Hood, and that arch rogue Puss in Boots, his memory will endure.

Excerpt from Old Fashioned Tales Daniel was once a favourite, and his narrative is included here partly for that reason, and partly because a robbers' cave is an agreeable incident in a book too much concerned with good and naughty children in ordinary English homes.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Primary Reader: Old-Time Stories, Fairy Tales and Myths, Retold by Children This book originated in a series of little reading lessons pre pared for the first grade pupils in the Santa Rosa public schools. The object of the lessons was three-fold: to provide reading matter for the little ones who had only a small vocabulary of sight words; to acquaint them early with the heroes who have come down to us in song and story; and to create a desire for literature. It has been my endeavor to follow Dr. G. Stanley Hall's suggestions in his monograph, How to Teach Reading, where he asks for true child-editions, made by testing many children with the work piece-meal and cutting and adapting the material till it really and closely fitted the minds and hearts of the children. Various stories were given to the pupils; discussions followed. After a time the story was produced orally by the children. Notes were made on expressions used and points of interest dwelt upon. Later the story was either written on the black board or mimeographed and put into the pupils' hands to read. It gave great delight to the children to recognize an old friend in a new dress, and as interest was aroused, but little difficulty was encountered in recognizing words that were indeed new in their sight vocabulary, but old servants in their oral vocabulary. The spirit of the book may be illustrated by referring to the roast turkey in the story of The Little Match Girl. The story was told as dear old Hans Christian Andersen gave it to the little German children of fifty years ago. But American children have a different idea of the fowl which graces the table at Christmas time. The story as it came from the lips of the chil dren referred to the turkey, and goose was used in only one instance. As the story was to appeal to our children, the word was changed to suit their ideas. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
