Book Five is the first volume devoted to helping the student read to learn as opposed to learn to read, a subtle, but important, distinction. The picture books are left behind and the reader is introduced to a world made of words. Illustrations play a diminishing role, while the literature itself is emphasized. Understanding the meaning of the stories and poetry is the emphasis from this volume through the last, Book Eight.

Children reading this book will be charmed by prose and poetry about the natural world; inspired by stories of home, country, and service; delighted by tales from The Arabian Nights; and impressed with the richness of the work of some of America's greatest authors.

At the end of this volume, the reader will find a substantial glossary including word pronunciation guides. These guides have been updated specially for this edition to reflect current pronunciation notation.

Teacher's Guides are available for each book in this series.
