Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Children's Classics in Dramatic Form, Vol. 4
Children are dramatic by nature. They are for the time the kings, the fairies, and the heroes that they picture in their imaginations. They are these characters with such abandon and with such intense pleasure that the ou-looker must believe that nature intended that they should give play to this dramatic instinct, not so much formally, with all the trappings of the man-made stage, but spontaneously and natu rally, as they talk and read. If this expressive in stinct can be utilized in the teaching of reading, we shall be able both to add greatly to the child's enjoy ment and to improve the quality of his oral reading.
