Synopsis

Excerpt from A Country Reader I This Country Reader is not meant for the very young children, but for the elder children of our village schools - children who are supposed to read with ease, and who are expected to know the meaning of ordinary English words. I have striven to use the shortest words and simplest sentences at my command, and to make my meaning as plain as possible. I should like to remind my readers that this little work is a Reader and not a text-book; and so, while endeavouring that it should contain accurate modern knowledge, I have tried with my whole heart to make it live with interest. To arouse the observation of the children, and so excite an interest in, and fondness for, the varied life and work that lies around them, has been my supreme object.
