Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Third Reader
The present still accepts this Wisdom of the past. A child who literally browses among books may appropriate something of their richness of thought and experience, and if trained to read orally he is able to share with others the wealth he has acquired.
But this is not all. Oral reading is the simplest and most natural means of self -expression.
The dramatic instinct actually demands expression in every child. If the story be natural and vivid, lending itself to a free play of action and feeling, oral reading becomes a most natural and desirable outlet for the normal emotions.
