Nature Readers Sea-Side and Way-Side
Excerpt from Sea-Side and Way-Side: No; 1
Should not the first short, strong Saxon sentences be rather used to convey scientific facts, than such trivial information as, The boy has a new hat, or, I had a plate of green corn to eat, on the fourth day of July?
Lessons fresh from the sea-shore and the field where life is seen, not in an abnormal state, as captivity, but in its own chosen homes and natural development, cannot fail to have an educative power of great value, even to minds of a very early age.
