_By_ MARGARET W. HALIBURTON
The author of this series knows children and their interests; schools
and their possibilities; pedagogy and its lessons; nature, literature
and art, and their resources in education. The series has individuality.
Beginning with live phonics and vivid drama, it includes fairy and folk
lore, games, stories of school activities, of primitive life, of nature,
of child life in other lands, dramatizations, and a wealth of standard
literature that appeals to the growing child.
_Bertha M. Bentley, Primary Supervisor, Speyer School, Teachers College,
Columbia University_: I have examined the Haliburton Readers quite
thoroughly and find them very satisfactory. For readers built upon a
phonic scheme they are far ahead of most readers of that sort. The
material is literary in character and interesting to children.
_Ann Beers, Supervising Principal, Jefferson School, Washington, D. C._:
The Haliburton Readers are striking in many ways: in binding, in type,
in paper, in illustration, in arrangement, in subject matter, in
suggestion, in vocabulary, and in many other delightful matters. One can
say most emphatically that these books make an inestimably valuable
acquisition to the reading matter of a school system. I can also report
the very earnest approval of the books by the teachers of some of my
best schools.
