Excerpt from Fairy GrammarThere is no new method of teaching, no new fangled device aolvcd in this book. It is merely a tale by means of Which the child's imagination is brought to bear upon a difficult and uninterest ing subject (from the child's point of view), and which, I believe, will enable the young mind to grasp the importance of grammar, and all ancon sciously to learn its first mysteries. Certainly, the lessons are not carried very far; but experience has'shown me that, when once a child has firmly grasped the difference between the parts of speech, no difficulty is experienced in erecting the rest of the edifice. And I believe in making a child's first efforts as easy and as pleasant as possible.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

My second year at Daizlei didn't kill me. It did something so much worse. It killed her. And the world will never be the same because of it. Anastasia thought she could own me. The Supernatural thought they could control me. They didn't realize the darkness they courted until the walls of Daizlei came crushing down around us. I always thought of myself as hard. Unbreakable. Unbeatable. Until someone beat me. Now...I was broken and I planned to use all my sharp edges for the one thing I had left. Revenge.
