PREFACE 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 book 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.

Material delightful to the hearing, but perhaps in a lesser degree to the understanding, of a child of from nine to twelve years of age, yields pleasure also to the adult; while to children of twelve to sixteen or seventeen the same material would be dry and uninteresting; its beauty is not intuitively perceived by them as by their younger brothers. For example, let me cite “Emmy Lou,” by G. M. Martin; “Little Citizens,” by Myra Kelly, and “Uncle Remus,” by Joel Chandler Harris. In these stories there is a bond of sympathy established in the case of the younger child which does not apply to his older brother. To the adult—who has been through the various phases of life incident to the reaching of adolescence and maturity—such stories appeal keenly from a psychological standpoint, so strong is the bond between adult and child. In the matter of reading, it must be remembered that the child of seven is as truly a critic as the man of seventy; and while it is the aim of the parent or teacher to put into the hands of the child such literature as will be conducive to his welfare, it is neither wise nor just to force upon him material against which he instinctively rebels. And here is where theory and practice conflict. I recall that on my eighth birthday a much interested relative presented me with a copy of Wm. Matthew’s “Getting on in the World.” His intentions in making this gift were admirable; he had my future in view, and he did what he believed to be a very correct thing. I might either have read the book myself or have had it read to me. The latter I believe was done, my seniors entertaining the hope that I would thereby be imbued with ideas which might become the foundation of future success. Alas! my well-intentioned relative made the mistake of acting upon false theory instead of trusting to his practical common sense. Had the proviso been made that I should read the book at, say, the age of fifteen or earlier, should development allow, the purpose of the donor might have been met; but as the book was not suited to my age and understanding, the result was disappointment to both giver and receiver. This is mentioned as an instance of misguided zeal, the giver failing to see that the child was unable to digest and assimilate the proffered mental pabulum. It is only natural that parents should wish their children to be well informed, and with this end in view many a fond mother proceeds to fill the head of her poor defenceless child with science, instead of regaling it with nursery rhymes, folk lore, and fairy tales. Not infrequently a child will grow up without having been allowed to read or listen to a fairy tale. Mythology, travel, history, earth, sky, etc., but nothing that will not add in some way to scholarly attainment. Poor child! he is defrauded by his own parents. The desire for the beautiful fairy, the wicked witch, and the ugly giant is natural to a child. Every human being is endowed with an imagination which is active and insistent, and its craving is really the thirst for knowledge. It may seem strange, perhaps, that the nursery rhyme and the fairy tale should be rungs of the ladder of knowledge. Take the case of a man at the head of a profession. He didn’t reach his present height at a jump, but, beginning with the most elementary subjects, he acquired his learning by degrees, until in due course he won prominence. And so it is with the child: step by step come the nursery jingle and rhyme, the fairy tale, simple poetry, etc., all paving the way for that which requires more strenuous effort. It will be noted that there have been mentioned the fairy, the witch, and the giant. The first represents beauty and goodness, the second wickedness, and the third brute strength. In the average fairy tale these three concomitants are so blended that the dominating character is the fairy, who eventually prevails over the machinations of the wicked witch and the brutal giant. As the fairy represents love and kindness, a most important lesson is impressed upon the mind of the child. There is also a good reason for the witch and the giant. The child is not born already civilized, but with natural and savage instincts. Civilization, which is only a veneer, is an acquired thing, and it needs only a scratch to bring the savage instinct to the surface. The witch and the giant, then, do their part in appeasing the desire for violence; and the fact that these disturbing elements are finally overcome by the good fairy is a great factor in the early education of the child. The best collection of tales for very young children is that known as “Mother Goose Nursery Tales,” gathered together by Charles Perrault. The origin of most of these tales is lost in the shades of antiquity. Every parent should have in mind the great importance to the child of the literature he reads. Much good or much harm may be the result of the early impressions gained. The safest way is to procure books from one who specializes, and who knows the general trend of the contents of a book. There are authors and publishers who may be relied upon for the wholesomeness of their productions, and with these the book-buyer will soon become familiar; but the general output is so large, the authors and publishers so many, and the tastes so varied, that the wise book-buyer will rely to a great extent upon the bookseller in the matter of selection. There is a period in the life of almost every boy when the desire for the sensational is paramount. Then must the parent be most watchful, because somehow the boy will secure reading material which may possibly be decidedly harmful. How often do we read of a boy in possession of a cheap revolver or a bloodthirsty-looking knife being apprehended while on his way to slay Indians, or to become a bandit or a pirate. His actions are almost always directly traceable to the dime novel or the penny dreadful so easily procured. Happily there are plenty of books on the market which will satisfy the boy’s craving for the wild and adventurous, and which will at the same time be of some benefit to him in leading him to become interested in certain periods of history or in implanting a desire for information regarding the geography of this and other countries. From a literary standpoint these books are as a rule mediocre, but they are valuable as substitutes for the more lurid effusions. In this connection may be mentioned the productions of Stratemeyer, Henty, Otis, Strang, Monroe, Stoddard, and Brereton, etc., which may be given without question to the boy of from ten to sixteen years. At the age of twelve to sixteen most boys develop a desire for school, college, and outing stories, and numerous authors cater to this taste. Among the better known of these are Barbour, Home, Finnemore, Malone, Beach, Hare, Earl, Tomlinson, and Paine; and all their books for boys may be relied upon. While the output of books for boys is greater than that for girls, there is plenty of good wholesome literature, suitable to all ages of girlhood, from which to draw. Up to the age of nine or ten years the line of reading for the girl may be substantially the same as that for her brother, unless it be that the liking for the fairy tale is more pronounced in her case. In the matter of a desire for really good literature it may be said that the girl is usually more advanced than the boy. From eleven to fifteen years of age is the best time for historical tales, such as those by A. M. Barnes, Lucy F. Madison, and A. T. Curtis; and from twelve to sixteen those by Amy Blanchard and Charlotte M. Yonge. The series of Young Folks’ Histories by the last named author may be read by children from ten years up with pleasure and profit. The justly popular “Little Women” series by Louisa M. Alcott should be read by girls of from twelve to sixteen; they will not be properly appreciated at an age younger than twelve. For those of a more tender age, ranging from seven to eleven, this author’s other series “The Scrap Bag,” and “Lulu’s Library,” make good, wholesome reading. The girl of ten to thirteen years will be much interested in Marguerite Bouvet’s “Little Marjorie’s Love Story,” “Sweet William,” and “A Child of Tuscany”; while her older sister of sixteen to eighteen will be delighted with “My Lady” and “Tales of an Old Chateau,” by the same author. Of course, there is such temperamental difference in children that it is absolutely impossible to draw any hard and fast line in the matter of reading according to age, but in the cases of nine out of ten children it is safe to avoid the theoretical and to accept the practical. There are children of twelve taking a high school course, and there are also children of fifteen in the lower grades; but these are exceptions and not the rule. A very important item in the education of the child is the supplementary reader, and the idea of training the child’s literary instinct by this means is fostered by all educators. There have been much time, thought, and experience devoted to this subject, and there are now in use many splendid series, arranged for the various grades, the high school, and the college. The field is wide and a great wealth of real literature has been selected, annotated, and arranged, and additions are continually being made to the already long list. For the grades, perhaps the best collection is that by Dr. Charles Eliot Norton called “The Heart of Oak Books,” in the first two volumes of which will be found a splendid selection of fairy tales, fables, wonder stories, and rhymes. The whole series is of general excellence. The supplementary reading should begin with rhymes, fairy tales, and fables, followed by simple mythology, legends, and folk lore; then nature stories, biography, history, stories of travel, science in story form, art, and the classics of literature. Four series in which most of these subjects are contained are Ginn & Co.’s “Classics for Children” and the “Eclectic Readings” published by the American Book Company, “The Riverside Literature Series,” published by Houghton Mifflin Co., and Appleton’s “Home Reading Books.” For the high school student may be recommended the “Riverside Literature Series,” Longman’s “English Classics,” “The Lake English Classics,” and the “Macmillan School Readings.” There is no question that the supplementary reader in the school has done much to improve the literary taste of the pupil, and it is probable that the regular reader will to a great extent be superseded by the supplementary reader. And now as to illustrations and artists. For children of one, two, and three years the rag toy book is very satisfactory. The colors are bright and attractive, and when soiled the book may be washed and ironed the same as a handkerchief. Then there are the linen books and those mounted on linen. Of these there are few standards, but titles such as “The Three Bears,” “Three Little Kittens,” “A. was an Archer,” “Farmyard Friends,” “Domestic Animals,” and “Wild Animals” can almost always be secured. There are four houses in the United States which pay special attention to the very young children,—E. P. Dutton & Co., Raphael Tuck, Sons & Co., F. Warne & Co., and McLaughlin & Co., and of these firms only the last does any actual manufacturing in this country. Perhaps four-fifths of this class of color work for the world is done in Germany. Some of the best examples are the productions of Kate Greenaway, Leslie Brooke, Randolph Caldecott, and Walter Crane. These four artists have given us the best examples of real art for children, and their picture and toy books should be a great deal more widely known than they are. The manufacturing of the books of these four artists is all done in England; and for real art, combined with mechanical excellence, they are absolutely the finest picture books ever put before the public. Among English artists Milicent Sowerby is well worthy of recognition; among her delightful books are “Childhood” and “Yesterday’s Children,” published in America by Duffield & Co. Among the artists of this country whose masterpieces depict childhood, Jessie Willcox Smith stands preëminent. Her illustrations in “Real Rhymes of Real Children,” “The Book of the Child,” etc., have made her the most popular among American artists whose work is devoted to the delineation of child life. Books which she has illustrated and which contain good examples of her art, besides the two already mentioned, are “The Child’s Garden of Verses,” “A Child’s Book of Old Verses,” “Seven Ages of Childhood,” “The Child’s Book of Stories,” and “Dream Blocks.” Of a very different type are the clever and humorous illustrations by Grace G. Wiederseim, which may be seen to good advantage in “Nursery Rhymes from Mother Goose,” “Kiddie Land,” “Bobby Blake,” and “Dolly Drake.” Peter Newell has also done excellent humorous work, such as “The Hole Book,” “The Slant Book,” “Pictures and Rhymes,” “Alice in Wonderland,” etc. B. Cory Kilvert, John Rae, Bessie Pease Gutman, Hope Dunlap, Ethel Franklin Betts, and Wilhelmina Seegmiller have all done most attractive work which appeals to the younger children. The artist who is capable of producing illustrations attractive alike to both child and adult, and which are understood by both, is what may be termed a sympathetic genius; he also represents a distinctive branch of art. All whose names have been mentioned in this connection possess this great gift. A splendid series of illustrations is contained in Boutet de Monvel’s “Joan of Arc.” This book is for the more mature child, and is in a class by itself. Maxfield Parrish has illustrated Eugene Field’s “Poems of Childhood,” “The Arabian Nights,” Hawthorne’s “The Wonder Book and Tanglewood Tales,” and “Mother Goose in Prose” by Frank Baum, and each illustration is a very worthy contribution to American art. Two very attractive books are “When Little Boys Sing” and “Improving Songs for Anxious Children,” songs for children written and illustrated by John and Rue Carpenter. From the standpoint of art these illustrations are not entitled to any very high place, but they show originality and humor of expression. Among the later artists who have made a name for themselves as illustrators of children’s books is Lucy Fitch Perkins; fine examples of her work are shown in “The Goose Girl” and in Mrs. C. H. Harrison’s books, “The Moon Prince,” “The Flaming Sword,” and “Prince Silver Wings”; also in a series called the “Dandelion Classics,” which include “Robin Hood,” “Twenty Best Fairy Tales,” “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” “A Wonder Book,” and “Æsop’s Fables.” During the last few years several artists have achieved fame through their genius in illustrating books for the young. Among the more prominent of these are Arthur Rackham, Edmund Dulac, and Warwick Goble. Among the books illustrated by Arthur Rackham are “Peter Pan,” “The Rainbow Book,” “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,” and Grimm’s “Fairy Tales.” To Edmund Dulac may be credited among others, “The Arabian Nights,” and “The Sleeping Beauty.” ONE THOUSAND BOOKS FOR CHILDREN _For Girls Eight to Ten_ ALICE’S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND.

There are a lot of things you can do with Project Gutenberg™ electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg™ electronic works. See paragraph 1.E below. 1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation (“the Foundation” or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the United States and you are located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project Gutenberg™ mission of promoting free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg™ works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg™ name associated with the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg™ License when you share it without charge with others. 1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project Gutenberg™ work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning the copyright status of any work in any country other than the United States. 1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg: 1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate access to, the full Project Gutenberg™ License must appear prominently whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg™ work (any work on which the phrase “Project Gutenberg” appears, or with which the phrase “Project Gutenberg” is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed, copied or distributed: This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and most other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org. If you are not located in the United States, you will have to check the laws of the country where you are located before using this eBook. 1.E.2.

If you are redistributing or providing access to a work with the phrase “Project Gutenberg” associated with or appearing on the work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the Project Gutenberg™ trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or 1.E.9. 1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg™ electronic work is posted with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will be linked to the Project Gutenberg™ License for all works posted with the permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work. 1.E.4.

Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg™ License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1. 1.E.7. Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying, performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg™ works unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9. 1.E.8. You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing access to or distributing Project Gutenberg™ electronic works provided that: • You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from the use of Project Gutenberg™ works calculated using the method you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark, but he has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax returns. Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the address specified in Section 4, “Information about donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.” • You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg™ License.

If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg™ electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the manager of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark. Contact the Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below. 1.F. 1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project Gutenberg™ collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg™ electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment. 1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the “Right of Replacement or Refund” described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project Gutenberg™ trademark, and any other party distributing a Project Gutenberg™ electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE. 1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further opportunities to fix the problem. 1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you ‘AS-IS’, WITH NO OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE. 1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions. 1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone providing copies of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works in accordance with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production, promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg™ electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg™ work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg™ work, and (c) any Defect you cause. Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™ Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life. Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org. Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state’s laws. The Foundation’s business office is located at 809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up to date contact information can be found at the Foundation’s website and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS. The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate. While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate. International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate. Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. Most people start at our website which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org. This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
