"THIRD READER"

512 Pages Compiled Under The Direction

of the  State Board of Education, Sacramento, California    

Printed At The State Printing Office

 

"This is a children's book for BOYS and GIRLS, to improve their reading skills and develop an interest in great literature at the same time.

This reader has five goals:

1. The pupil should be taught to utter correctly and with proper expression the printed words of an author.

2. The pupil should be led to acquire the power of rapid and accurate silent reading.

3. The pupil should be required to do much work of the kind indicated by the exercises entitled "Outline of the Lesson."

4. Attention should be given to increasing the pupil's vocabulary and to giving him intelligent and ready use of his word possessions.

5. The Reader should introduce the pupil into wider fields of reading and direct his choice.

This book is 512 pages and there are two hundred three (203) exercises to teach articulation, pronunciation, expression, elocution, etc. From The Sermon on The Mount to Henry V speech to his Troops by Shakespeare. Edgar Allen Poe, John Milton, Charles Dickens' Nicholas Nickleby, Daniel Webster's Liberty and Union, Lowell, Longfellow's Midnight Ride of Paul Revere, Whittier, Sir Walter Scott, Henry Clay, Warren's Address at Bunker Hill,

This book is hardback and the spine cover piece is missing. Front and back covers are intact and in sprisingly good shape, see pictures. There is much writing in ink scattered on a few pages as well as the red stamp of a Dodge & Burbeck Booksellers, San Diego, Cal. 

. Signature is on the inside front cover. Cleves Harrison.  I bought this book over twenty five years ago with a large group of Harrison family books in California

NOTE: This book is very scarce and extremely difficult to find in this condition. 

SATISFACTION GUARANTEED!
