My Book House The Magic Garden (Vol 7)

Miller, Olive Beaupre (editor)

Verlag: The United Educators, Inc., 1971

Reviewed by Dumb Ox: "This set of books was a part of my childhood, and instilled in me a love of reading that persists to this day. Each volume begins at a grade level---One being the easiest to Twelve being suitable for high-school level reading. This series contains selections from some of the finest writers, such as Jonathan Swift, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Rudyard Kipling, as well as fairy tales and folk legends from all around the world, both East and West. The illustrations are gorgeous, and some of the monsters are quite scary, but there is nothing extremely gruesome or inappropriate for young readers. From the simple and charming nursery rhymes of the first volume to the more mentally and emotionally challenging material contained in the last volume, these books take their reader on a marvelous journey through worlds both real and imaginary. This is a delightful way to open up a child's mind to reading." Color endpapers, illustrations. The 32 selections in this volume include The Bells by Edgar Allan Poe; David Copperfield and Little Em'ly by Charles Dickens; East O' the Son and West O' the Moon, A Norse Folk Tale; The Golden Touch by Nathaniel Hawthorne; Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Robert Frost.
