The Elson Readers: Book One

by william elson Author

(From Amazon): Book One continues and expands the task of teaching reading started with Primer. In this volume the type and spacing remain expanded for ease of letter recognition, but the stories are longer and their structure a bit more complex. The aim of upholding sound wholesome character development has not been forgotten, and this book contains moral-stories from Aesop, along with folk tales and charming stories from Eudora Bumstead, Christina Rosetti, Edna Riddleberger, and Robert Louis Stevenson among others.
