The Bird-Woman of the Lewis and Clark Expedition: A Supplementary Reader for First and Second Grades

Paperback (Forgotten Books March 23, 2010)
PREFACE. BECAUSE children invariably ask for "more" of the stories they find inte!esting, this little book of continuous narrative has been written. Every incident is found in the Lewis and Clark Journals, so that the child's frequent question, (I Is it true?" can be answered ir. the affirmative. The vocabulary consists of fewer than 700 words. Over half of these are found in popular primers. Therefore~ the child should have no difficulty in reading this historical story after completing a first reader. The illustrations on pages 13, 15, 29, 64, and the last one on page 79. are redrawn from Catlin's" Letters and , Notes on the Manners, Customs, and Conditions of the North-American Indians." My acknowledgments are due Miss Lilian Bridgman, of San Francisco, for help in arranging the vocabulary. KATHERINE CHANDLER. SAN FRANCISCO, CALJFORNIA. July I, 1905.
