Book Description
Excerpt from Readings in Literature, Vol. 2 This collection of readings IN literature is designed as a basal Reader for the eighth grade of the Elementary School or the mid-year of the Junior High School. It has been prepared with the realization that this is a period of transition for most pupils from elementary to secondary education, and that the character of the literature is an important means of bridging the gap between the two. The high-school requirements in literature usually include Poetry, Essays, Biography, Oratory, Prose Fiction, Drama, and Scripture. It is the purpose of this Reader to acquaint pupils with these types of literary expression in their simplest and choicest forms, without taking the keen edge off the pupils' interest by anticipating the more difficult selections that will be read later. The book thus lays the foundations for high school English by presenting many kinds of poetry from Addison down through the recent World War by numerous biographical notes and sketches of statesmen and men of letters, and essays of humor and fancy; by many Simple examples of oratory from American and English statesmen, including some of the most recent; by short stories and tales from Irving, Poe, 0. Henry, and living writers; by a sketch of the life of Shakespeare, and three great scenes from Julius Caesar; Old Testament readings from the book of Daniel, the Psalms, and the book of Job.

Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Cambridge Readings in Literature, Vol. 2 Reading in schools may take three forms - audible reading by individual pupils, silent reading by all members of a class and reading by the teacher to the class. These forms represent three grades of difficulty in matter. Pupils can appreciate poetry and prose well read to them which they could not themselves read aloud with intelligence. Some parts, therefore, of the available material should reach the third grade of difficulty. It must certainly not all be kept down to the level of a stumbler's precarious fluency. Litera ture should be measured out to readers by their capacity to receive rather than by their ability to deliver.

Book Description
Excerpt from Story and Play Readers, Vol. 2 But, we, as teachers, must not allow ourselves to get into the habit of making the reading period a resting place in the busy day. We must remember that reading in itself. Is the most important of all subjects, because through it, language, our means of intercourse with all peoples in all subjects, is developed. Through reading we have our opportunity to teach our greatest moral and ethical lessons, and to build up, through the appeal to the emotions, the fine well-rounded character of the cultivated man and woman. Does not the teaching of reading really mean teaching our children to understand all the mighty thoughts of the world, whether they be expressed in music, or poetry, or art, or in the characters of the heroes of literature?

Book Description
Excerpt from Cambridge Readings in Literature These reading books have been prepared in the first instance for use among pupils of eleven or twelve and above, and are thus suitable for the middle forms of secondary schools, the four years of central and higher grade schools, the upper Standards of elementary schools and the literature courses of continuation schools. Admirable use is now made of what are called Continuous Readers; but these should not wholly supplant a miscellany, a collection of extracts good in themselves and representative of great or interesting writers. Reading in schools may take three forms - audible reading by individual pupils, silent reading by all members of a class and reading by the teacher to the class. These forms represent three grades of difficulty in matter. Pupils can appreciate poetry and prose well read to them which they could not themselves read aloud with intelligence. Some parts, therefore, of the available material should reach the third grade of difficulty. It must certainly not all be kept down to the level of a stumbler's precarious fluency.
