A practical guide for parents and teachers presenting a graded plan to introduce young readers to classic literature through selections, study helps, and illustrative material.

Selections, such as those edited by Sarah E. Wiltse for Ginn & Co., are better than the complete editions, for many of the Grimm tales are coarse and valueless.

Besides some of the Grimm tales these books contain folklore stories from many nations. Lang has edited other books in this series, but two are probably enough.

Volume II

While the books mentioned in these lists seem most closely connected to the volume to which they are ascribed, yet no hard and fast lines can be drawn. Children will read in the second volume of this set before they have finished the first, and the books in the lists are suitable whenever interest is ripe in the kind of literature which the books contain. Several of the titles given in the list for the first volume should be considered with the second volume.

This contains many other stories than those given in these volumes.

Besides the lyrics children love so well, there are Hiawatha, Evangeline, Miles Standish and other poems, which belong to children as well as to the adults. The Cambridge edition published by Houghton, Mifflin Co. is a cheap, serviceable book, though the print is necessarily rather small.

Volume III

This volume contains selections from several books which it is felt will be read in their entirety by most children. They are:

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass.

Two modern fairy tales by Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson). The amusing pictures are by Sir John Tenniel. The Macmillan Company. These fantastic stories delight everyone who reads them.

Robinson Crusoe, by Daniel Defoe.

There are many editions of this old and popular story for boys, from an abbreviated form in words of one syllable to the original work in full. W. H. Lambert has edited a school edition in excellent manner for Ginn & Co.

The Swiss Family Robinson, by Johann Rudolph Wyss.

Though not of such literary merit as Robinson Crusoe, it is similar in plot and usually more popular. Ginn & Co. publish a good, cheap edition, edited by J. H. Stickney.

Arabian Nights’ Entertainment.

The complete editions are not suitable for children to read, but the edition edited by Andrew Lang is excellent. Several schoolbook houses publish good selections, including the most popular tales.

Besides the books mentioned in the lists for Volumes I and II, the following might be suggested here:

The Complete Poetical Works of John Greenleaf Whittier.

Houghton, Mifflin Company’s Cambridge edition is perhaps the best. Whittier did not write as much for children as Longfellow did, but his Snow-Bound is a classic that every child will love if he is helped a little in reading it. Other poems will appeal to the older members of the family.

The Book of Legends Told Over Again, by Horace E. Scudder.

are three good books by H. A. Guerber, which will help to create an interest in the history of those peoples and at the same time give information valuable in reading literature. All are published for school use by the American Book Company.

Child’s History of England, by Charles Dickens.

This book is always interesting to children, and is such good reading that we need not feel afraid of Dickens’ inexactness and apparent prejudices. Read it as literature, not so much as history.

Birds and Bees, Sharp Eyes and Other Papers, by John Burroughs.

Houghton, Mifflin Co. Though this may seem rather hard reading to some, it is delightful literature, and full of good lessons in observation for children. Other books by the same author are equally entertaining. An excellent book to read to children.

Volume VI

Tales of a Grandfather, by Sir Walter Scott.

An abridged edition, published by Ginn & Co., contains the best tales, but many children will like them all.

The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin.

An excellent book for young people on account of its interest and its clear literary style. An edition by Houghton, Mifflin Co., contains a sketch of Franklin’s life subsequent to the time when his autobiography ends.

Lays of Ancient Rome, by Thomas Babington Macaulay.

Inspiring tales in verse such as children love to hear. Horatius is among them.

Ivanhoe, by Sir Walter Scott.

Houghton, Mifflin Co. publish a cheap school edition.

The Talisman, by Sir Walter Scott.

Scottish Chiefs, by Jane Porter.

This is one of the stories that young people enjoyed years ago. It helps to the reading of Scottish history, and is a good type of the romantic novel.

Enoch Arden, by Alfred Tennyson.

Idyls of the King, by Alfred Tennyson.

The Complete Poetical Works of Oliver Wendell Holmes.

Cambridge edition of Houghton, Mifflin Co. The Grandmother’s Story of Bunker Hill, A Ballad of the Boston Tea Party, Ode for Washington’s Birthday, Old Ironsides, Lexington and others have historical value.

A Tale of Two Cities, by Charles Dickens.

A thrilling story of the French Revolution, rather full of terrible happenings, and rather mature.

The Lady of the Lake, and
Marmion, by Sir Walter Scott,

the two best of his longer poems, rarely fail to interest young people.

Tales from Shakespeare, by Charles and Mary Lamb.

The Tempest,
A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and
The Merchant of Venice,

are the three Shakespearean plays that first interest children. Care should be taken in the selection of the edition, as none of the plays in their original form are suitable for children. School editions with notes are excellent. The Tempest is printed in Volume VIII of this set, and is deferred to that point on account of the very full notes and comments that accompany it. The play itself may be read quite early, and children should be encouraged to try their skill on Shakespeare as soon as they show signs of interest.

Undine, by Baron de la Motte Fouqué,

is a beautiful fairy tale from the German, with interest for older children than those who read Andersen and Grimm.

Plutarch’s Lives.

White’s Boys’ and Girls’ Plutarch is recommended. The lives of Brutus, Julius Cæsar, Themistocles, Pericles and Alexander are among the more interesting.

The Burning of Rome, by A. J. Church,

is a thrilling story of that event.

Cuore, by Edmondo De Amicis.

The journal of an Italian schoolboy. Useful and moral, but not always interesting to American boys.

In His Name, by Edward Everett Hale.

A tale of religious persecution.

The Peasant and the Prince, by Harriet Martineau.

An intensely interesting picture of France just before the Revolution.

Picciola, by X. B. Santine.

A touching story whose scene is laid in France in the time of Napoleon.

Life of Daniel Boone, by J. and J. C. Abbott.

The Iliad, Bryant’s translation.

Classified Lists

When boys and girls can read the first seven volumes of this set intelligently and with pleasure they are thinking for themselves. Their tastes are forming rapidly, and they have learned how to read nearly everything that comes to them. They know how to use reference books, and can “make out the meaning” of difficult passages. They are reading for information and culture. What they lack is experience in life, and so they are unable to interpret what they read as fully as can those who have lived longer, seen more of the world, enjoyed more, suffered more. Where they are liable to fail and go astray is in the lack of judgment. They know right and wrong, but they cannot always see the difference. They are apt to be misled by their feelings and to be ruled by their emotions.

The studies and selections of the last three volumes are varied and highly suggestive. They will open new lines of thought and prompt to wider reading in many directions. The contents vary in difficulty as in character, but are not graded in a strict sense of the term. They are meant for independent readers, readers who are governed by mood or purpose and no longer rely upon outside guidance.

Accordingly, lists of books suitable for readers of these volumes will cover every department of literature and lead into the reading favored by adults. The majority of these lists deal with literature. They contain the names of those books which are distinctly helpful, and from which young readers may derive nothing to corrupt taste or give false impressions of life. They are the standard books of the language. The lists might have been longer; they do contain, however, the names of those best books that every cultured person should know. For convenience in reference the arrangement is the alphabetical order of authors’ names.

Fiction

Ainsworth, William Harrison: The Tower of London, the story of Lady Jane Grey, and the plots and intrigues that centered about her.

Alcott, Louisa M.: Little Men and Little Women, two interesting and thoroughly wholesome books for boys and girls.

Austen, Jane: Pride and Prejudice, an old-fashioned story, interesting, but liable to be called dull by those who read only the lively stories of the day.

Blackmore, R. D.: Lorna Doone, a delightful romance, the scene of which is laid in Exmoor, England, in the beginning of the eighteenth century.

Bulwer-Lytton, Sir Edward: The Last Days of Pompeii, the author’s greatest novel; The Last of the Barons, the story of the Earl of Warwick; Harold, The Last of the Saxons, a tale of the Norman Conquest of England.

Doyle, A. Conan: The White Company, an exciting fourteenth century story.

Eliot, George: Silas Marner, an intensely human story, a heart history; Romola, a thrilling story of Florence in the days of Savonarola, a study in the degeneration of character that comes from doing only the agreeable things in life.

Goldsmith, Oliver: The Vicar of Wakefield, an amusing and at times pathetic picture of English country life in the eighteenth century.

Hawthorne, Nathaniel: The Scarlet Letter, a tale of sin and its punishment in Puritan New England; The Marble Faun, an Italian story full of the art and culture of Rome.

Hugo, Victor: Les Miserables, one of the greatest novels of the world, but its digressions and its philosophy make it difficult reading for the young. Interesting abridgements of it may be had from the schoolbook houses.

Saint Pierre, Bernardin De: Paul and Virginia, a pretty love story from the French.

Scott, Sir Walter: Kenilworth, a tale of the days of Queen Elizabeth; Old Mortality, a story of the Covenanters; Guy Mannering, an eighteenth century tale, with Meg Merrilies, Dominic Sampson and others of Scott’s most famous characters; The Heart of Midlothian, a tale of sin and its punishment, with a wonderful picture of a sister’s love and devotion.

Stowe, Harriet Beecher: Uncle Tom’s Cabin, an interesting story, but like most books written for partisan purposes, its influence is not now wholesome.

Thackeray, William Makepeace: Henry Esmond, Pendennis and The Newcomes may be read in the order named. Vanity Fair is better appreciated by adults.

Twain, Mark: Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, two stories whose fun every boy will appreciate.

Wallace, Lew: Ben Hur, a Tale of the Christ. An admirable historical novel.

Poetry and Drama

Browning, Robert: Besides the poems given in these books, The Lost Leader and Rabbi Ben Ezra are enjoyed by boys and girls.

Bryant, William Cullen: The Poetical Works (Household Edition), D. Appleton & Co. The Song of Marion’s Men, The Green Mountain Boys, Thanatopsis, Sella, The Death of the Flowers, The Planting of the Apple Tree and Robert of Lincoln are among his best poems.

Shakespeare, William: Julius Cæsar and Coriolanus, two plays based on Roman history and excellent for reading purposes; Richard II (1398-1399), Henry IV (1402-1413), Henry V (1414-1420), Henry VI (1422-1471), Richard III (1471-1485), all based on English history; As You Like It, a great comedy; Hamlet and King Lear, perhaps the two greatest tragedies. All these are excellent reading, especially in such an edition as the Temple Classics. Other plays may well be read, but everyone should know the foregoing list.

Essays

Emerson, Ralph Waldo: The American Scholar, Self-Reliance, Culture and Behavior may be read with profit by the young, even if they do not fully understand the philosophy.

Hale, Edward Everett: American Essays and English Essays, two books edited by Hale. They contain selections from the writings of George William Curtis, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Washington Irving, James Russell Lowell, Addison, Goldsmith, Lamb and Thackeray.

Holmes, Oliver Wendell: The Autocrat of the Breakfast Table, a charming series of talks which embody the best of Holmes’s wit, wisdom and philosophy. One of those things everybody must read.

Irving, Washington: The Sketch Book contains such perfect stories as Rip Van Winkle and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, as well as a number of fine essays for later reading.

Roosevelt, Theodore: American Ideals and Other Essays. Putnam.

Ruskin, John: Sesame and Lilies. In spite of its seeming difficulty, this book contains some of the most inspiring words ever spoken on books and reading.

Warner, Charles Dudley: A-Hunting of the Deer and Other Essays, a delightful little collection that young people will enjoy and that has fine literary qualities. Houghton, Mifflin Co.

Biography

Fabre, Jean-Henri: Our Humble Helpers, familiar talks on the domestic animals. The Century Co.

Fiske, John: The War of Independence. Houghton, Mifflin Co.

Lodge, Henry Cabot, and Roosevelt, Theodore: Hero Tales from American History. The Century Company.

Parkman, Francis: La Salle and the Northwest, The Conspiracy of Pontiac, and Montcalm and Wolfe are three histories of a brilliant series on the French explorations and colonizations in the Northwest. Parkman is one of our finest historical writers, and his graphic style has given many a young man a deep interest in history.

Prescott, William Hickling: The Conquest of Mexico and The Conquest of Peru are two interesting histories of the longer type, written in an interesting style that many youths will enjoy. Prescott’s work lies with the Spanish, as Motley’s with the Dutch and Parkman’s with the French.
