Excerpt from Third Book of Reading Lessons

The Third Book or Reading Lessons now presented to the Public by the Brothers of the Christian Schools will be found to correspond m matter and arrangement with the volumes previously offered. In its adaptation to the analytic or explanatory mode of instruction, as well as in the order, variety, and graduated scale of the lessons, this little volume will be found, not only to harmonize with the plan of education adopted by the Institute from which it emanates, but to exhibit its peculiar features.

In the short sketches of History, (Geography, and Science, which are scattered throughout the work, the compilers have endeavoured to select whatever was most picturesque and striking, for the purpose of exciting the interest of the youthful mind, by the charms of truth, and presenting the wonders of nature in so strong a light, as to render the marvels of fiction tame and feeble in comparison. In order to accommodate the length of the extracts to the capacity of the class of readers, for whom the Third Book is designed, and to afford the teachers an apportunity of practical illustration, it has been considered expedient to render the lessons as short as the nature of the subjects would admit.
