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. The illustrations are again by L. Kate Deal and provide visual clues to the meanings of the stories for the young readers' assistance and entertainment. A Word List can be found at the end of this volume containing the more difficult words with which the beginning reader may need additional help. Teacher's Guides are available for each book in this series.
