Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

It sometimes happens that there are people who do not know that authors and editors and the Titles of Books and Series are protected by copyright laws, and also by what is more binding, Professional Courtesy. Since publishing Toems Every Child Should Know, a very curious case of legal infringement and professional infringement has come up. There are some things that an editor cant do and be a gentleman. And another thing that an editor of books cant do is to hustle and rush things into print. No valuable editor or author will do any work except from an inner leading, and out of a full heart and a full knowledge. He will do nothing on time, nor under superintendence; nor will he do for a new firm what he has already done for an old firm or anything that competes with any one. Special permission has been obtained under the laws of courtesy, as well as the copyright laws, for each copyrighted selection in this volume, and the right to publish has been purchased, except in those cases where the author or the publisher has, for reasons of friendship, given the permission. In addition to business arrangements, we wish to extend our thanks and acknowledgments to those firms which have so kindly allowed us to use their material.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a carefully curated collection of prose that every child should know, including classics such as Aesop's fables, Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, and selections from the works of Dickens, Stevenson, Tolstoy, and more. The author, Mary E. Burt, was a respected educator who believed in the power of literature to shape young minds and hearts. The selections in this volume are chosen not only for their literary merit, but also for their ability to teach children about important values such as honesty, compassion, and courage. The book is divided into six parts, each with a different focus. Part I, "The Budding Moment," includes selections that are perfect for young children, such as "The Little Wooden Puppet Tells How He Became a Donkey" by Carlo Lorenzini and "The Perils of a Fly" by John Ruskin. Part II, "A Larger World," introduces children to more challenging works, such as "The Declaration of Independence" by Thomas Jefferson and "The Gettysburg Address" by Abraham Lincoln. Part III, "The Hero Within," includes selections that celebrate courage and determination, such as "The Boy Who Could Do Anything" by Washington Irving and "The Sword in the Stone" by T.H. White. Part IV, "The Power of Words," explores the beauty and power of language, with selections such as "Ode to a Nightingale" by John Keats and "The Raven" by Edgar Allan Poe. Part V, "The Bonds That Unite Us," celebrates the importance of family, friendship, and community, with selections such as "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exup� ry and "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry. Part VI, "The Wider World," looks at the world beyond our immediate surroundings, with selections such as "The Jungle Book" by Rudyard Kipling and "The Call of the Wild" by Jack London.
