Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an early reader designed to help children bridge the gap between learning basic words and understanding classic literature. The author's specific choice of stories and poems, pulled from world folklore, and standard works of literature, exposes children to writing techniques that have stood the test of time. That the lessons are adapted from well-known classics, such as Gulliver's Travels, Snow Image, Brer Rabbit, and My Shadow, provides a foundation for students to pursue these works further as they develop as readers. While the primary focus is on expanding vocabulary and comprehension, the author's ultimate aim is to ignite a love of reading, and understanding within a young audience. Through the interpretation of thought and action that may lie just beyond their reach, this book encourages a genuine literary uplift in its readers.
