About This Book

Practical guidance for selecting wholesome, age-appropriate reading for children, youth, and adults, arranging recommendations by audience—little ones, school classes, boys, drawing-room readers—and by subjects such as scripture, history, biography, natural history, science, mythology, fairy tales, and allegory. The text stresses the value of school and parish libraries, cultivating literary taste to deter harmful reading, and choosing books that support moral and educational aims. It also offers suggestions for mothers’ meetings, missionary working-parties, communal readings, and annotated lists with notes on suitability and instructional use.

ON THE CATECHISM.

These are not studies on the Catechism, but illustrations.

243. Stories and Lessons on the Catechism. (Walter Smith) 3 vols. 13s.

A companion to the lessons on the Collects, with a class of girls instead of boys. The using of it for many years has tested its excellence.

244. Stories on the Catechism. By C. A. Jones. (Masters) 4 vols. 2s. 6d. each.

Detached stories, with questions at the end of each on the portion to which it applies.

245. Laneton Parsonage. (See No. 180.)

Written mainly to illustrate the Catechism.

246. Tales illustrative of the Apostles’ Creed. By J. M. Neale. (Masters) 2s. 6d.

247. Stories on the Commandments. (S.P.C.K.) 1s. 6d.

248. Stories on my Duty to God. (S.P.C.K.) 1s. 6d.

249. Stories on my Duty to my Neighbour. (S.P.C.K.) 1s. 6d.

250. Stories on the Lord’s Prayer. By E. Sewell. (Masters) 6d.

All the above may be usefully read, or lent, to children, one by one, as comments on the lesson freshly taught.

251. The Little Camp on Eagle Hill. By E. Wetherell. (Warne) 1s. 6d.

Somewhat striking conversations upon the Lord’s Prayer.

252. Children of the Church. Part 1. By Mrs. O’Reilly. (Wells Gardner, Darton & Co.) 1s. 6d.

253. Teachings for the Little Ones on the Catechism. By C. M. Yonge. (Walter Smith) 2s. 6d.

These last are more of Sunday-school books than intended to be lent, but as most of the instruction to very little ones must be conveyed either by reading or speaking to them, it has been thought that the recommendation of these might be an assistance to teachers preparing lessons.
