A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

There is a rhythm in growth. Interest swings like a pendulum between the self and the not self; between the personal and the abstract; between the affections of the heart and the conceptions of the mind; between the gentler and the sterner ideals of life and conduct; from beauty to duty and back again. The mere babe first gazes with astonishment on the newest or most noticeable thing in view and then wishes to act upon it. Sentiment dawns under stimulation by mother or kindergarten. The kindergarten systematically recognizes the rhythmic action of the mind within its range of interests. The Character Building Readers continue the moral culture of the child under this law. The successive awakenings they endeavor to promote to clear perceptions of and enthusiasm for (i) mother-love, tenderness, chivalry, etc.; (2) industry; (3) cooperation and helpfulness; (4) courage and perseverance follow the natural swinging of the pendulum of growth. This book contains sufficient matter on former lines to keep alive the sentiments previously trained, and a few pieces meant for relaxation and recreation only. I ts more distinctive effort is to repeatedly stir those feelings which prompt a noble emulation of what are commonly regarded as the more masculine virtues in contradistinction from the more feminine as taught in the preceding books. Moral fiber begins to form and knit as these ideas possess the imagination and inspire the will.
