Excerpt from The Natural Method Readers: A First Reader
This book, the second of the natural method readers, is designed to proceed along the lines laid down in the primer, and gradually to enable the pupil to gain the ability to read for himself.
The Mother Goose rhymes, which were so freely used in the primer, are made the connecting link with the higher work, the simple folk myths and the other stories that make their appeal to the child six or seven years old. While the language has to be limited to the exigencies of a comparatively small but growing vocab ulary, an endeavor has been made to preserve the lit crary flavor of folk narration.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a delightful collection of classic stories designed to introduce young readers to the joy of literature. Drawing upon the popular Mother Goose rhymes, the author seamlessly transitions into a wider range of narratives, including folk myths and simple tales, all carefully crafted to appeal to children six or seven years old. The book's approach to teaching reading is grounded in the principles of phonics, emphasizing the sounds of letters and words. The author's use of repetition and simple language allows children to gain confidence in deciphering words independently. Furthermore, the author's skillful preservation of the "literary flavor" of folk narration ensures that the stories are not only engaging but also culturally rich. While the book primarily focuses on developing reading skills, it also subtly explores themes of morality, kindness, and the importance of learning from mistakes. Through the adventures of Chicken Little, the Three Bears, and other beloved characters, children are introduced to fundamental values that will guide them as they grow. The book is an invaluable resource for parents and educators seeking to foster a love of reading in young children, equipping them with the skills and knowledge necessary to embark on a lifetime of literary exploration.
