One Thousand Books For Children PDF Download

Excerpt from One Thousand Books for Children The object of this book is to provide not only a practical list of suggestions that may be of service to those desirous of securing good and wholesome literature for their children, but also one that may be used by the children themselves. This compilation is divided into nineteen groups, in which the books are graded according to ages, so that selection may be readily made, and each hook title is followed by a short descriptive note. It is impossible to draw any absolute line as to the particular age a boy or girl must be in order to read and assimilate the contents of a certain book, such is the difference in mental development. However, long experience has shown the compiler what is best adapted to the average, and the grading has been done accordingly. Much care has been used in selecting books which have some value in assisting the gradual evolution of the mind or in shaping character, and which, at the same time, will make their appeal to the boy or girl.
