Excerpt from The Franklin Intellectual Arithmetic: For the Use of Schools
Hence it is im rtant that the objects presented to the mind of a chil should have an elevating influence, and excite him to aspire to something more excellent than he has already attained. To make children more fond of study, we must throw around them a literary atmosphere. If in their studies the are constant] reminded of mi sins and area es, can y and pears, fi berts and cookies, it becomes a ifiicult task to inspire them with a love for Academus' shades, Helium's fountain, or Siloa's brook. For this reason, among others, the to books of children,' such as Tom Thumb, Cock Robin, B as Beard, &c. Have been exchanged for the plain, practical, and unvarnished tales of real life.
