CHEAP AND ABRIDGED EDITION OF LAURIE'S GRADUATED SERIES OF READING-LESSON BOOKS. ESPECIALLY ADAPTED TO THE SIX STANDARDS OF THE REVISED CODE. THE Complete in SIX BOOKS, strongly bound in cloth. HE ABRIDGED EDITION of the GRADUATED SERIES of READING-LESSON BOOKS, with Explanatory Notes, adapted as a Progressive Course of Reading. By J. S. LAURIE. Re-edited and adapted for the most Elementary Schools by J. D. MORELL, LL.D. One of Her Majesty's Inspectors of Schools. The GRADUATED SERIES of READING BOOKS was originally compiled previously to the introduction of the Revised Code. In their primary form all the several Books went through several Editions, and gained general approbation amongst teachers and friends of education. Although the price has already been once reduced, and some attempts made to adapt the Series to the requirements of the new code, yet it has been found by experience that a Cheap and Abridged Edition suited to the more Elementary class of Schools is still a desideratum. For these schools the price of the large edition is often found too high, and the scale of difficulty in the several Standards somewhat too advanced. It is chiefly to meet these objections that the present Cheap Abridged Edition has now been issued. The matter has been so selected as to present much easier gradations from one Standard to another, and the price has been still further reduced so as to bring the whole series within the reach of the poorest classes of schools in the country. Book I. (or PRIMER) adapted to the First Standard of the Book II. adapted to the Second Standard, pp. 96 London: LONGMANS, GREEN, and CO. Paternoster Row. |
