Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Training of Children
It is a very precious thing that we give our children, if we can contrive to give them Wide and generous sym pathies, if we can make their hearts great enough to feel for the whole world, precious to others and also to them selves; for the cares and worries of life are more easily and lightly borne by those of us, who have early taken, what George mcdonald happily calls, that greatest of all steps, the step out of doors.
To feel beyond and above one's own petty personal interests, calms, rests and strengthens the human soul, and we should teach children to do this; and with this universal, all embracing sympathy and love, comes the deepest responsibility, for Love is the fulfilling of the law.
