Author of "Arithmetic for Young Children."
Edited by Willard Small.
Cloth. Price, 50 cents.
For the purpose of producing instruction and amusement for young children, too young to read or write, this little work has been prepared. The special object is to excite little children to examine surrounding objects correctly, so that valuable knowledge may be acquired, while the attention, memory, judgment, and invention are duly exercised.
In exercises such as those which compose this book, the most favorable circumstances may be seized as they arise, and will therefore produce an extraordinary effect. Wherever we are, in a room, garden, field, or road, in the morning or evening, winter or summer, action or rest, something interesting may be extracted; for at the moment when the attention is warmly excited, an event may be turned to the best account. The valuable habits acquired by means of familiar objects and petty events may gradually be extended to the most important subjects.
