The Child-Library Readers, Book One, is based on the belief that what the child needs when he has gained control of 600 to 700 words in his basal reading, is not primarily more words, but the wide use of this vocabulary in new and interesting associations, with only a minimum of new words to learn. In consequence, great care has been taken to make the text simple and easy to master.
