First Grammar Lessons
by Charlotte Mason Author
From the Riverbend Press website: This is the 1928 version of Mason’s own grammar text. It contains all four parts. An excellent first introduction to grammar, the PNEU began this text in Form IIB. It is suited as an introductory text for any age, with older students moving through at a quicker pace. From the Preface, "So then I took up the next book. It was about grammar. It said extraordinary things about nouns and verbs and particles and pronouns, and past participles and objective cases and subjunctive moods. 'What are all these things?' asked the king. 'I don't know, your majesty,' and the queen did not know, but she said it would be very suitable for children to learn. It would keep them quiet." It is so important that children should not be puzzled as were this bewildered king and queen, that the following Grammar Lessons were written.”
