It is of the utmost importance that the earliest steps in reading should be taken in the right direction. The habit of throwing expression into the sentences from the very first is invaluable; and this is impossible where the vocabulary is large. With this fact in mind, I have made my lessons as simple as possible; the average number of new words being about two and one-quarter to each page. To let the new life in, we know Desire must ope the portal. The subjects of the lessons have been chosen with an especial view to interesting the little ones so that their expression will come naturally and spontaneously. The wise teacher will weave an interest about the earliest lessons, filling them with thought and meaning of which the printed text shall be but a suggestion. A question here and there, a drawing out of the memory and imagination, will fill the pupil with a real interest in what he is reading; and the eager child nature will exult in the knowledge he has acquired, and pressing forward to what lies beyond will throw life and meaning into the simplest sentences. In connection with this book I have prepared a complete set of Practice Sentences.

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
