About this book
Literature for Children by Orton Lowe discusses books of literature and presents guidance for teachers working in the field of children's reading. The preface describes confusion confronting both child and teacher, expresses hope of leading the child out of that confusion, and stresses self-cultivation through reading great books. The advice to teachers identifies gaining the child's interest and confidence as their most enduring work, rather than merely discouraging unsuitable books or persuading parents.
The discussion of mythology argues that Greek mythology should define what is learned and recommends familiarity with stories of the gods and heroes. A reading list under travel, biography, autobiography and history includes Two Years Before the Mast by Richard H. Dana, Jr.
