Excerpt from Nature Myths and Stories This is a completely revised and enlarged edition of "Nature Myths and Stories," first published in 1892. In it I have retold favorite myths so that children may read them and enjoy them for themselves, and I have added stories that may suggest to teachers the wealth of good material within reach, and encourage them to form the habit of going to the best original sources, such as folklore, mythology, the Bible, and great poetry for help in the construction and telling of stories. I believe that a teacher should put enough of her own impulse to create into her story writing or story telling to make it a delight to herself as well as to her children. There are real dangers in adapting myths to children, yet the difficulties add to a teacher's satisfaction in the worth-while effort, and if she is sensitive to the emotional reactions of children, there is constant incentive to growth and improvement in the great art of telling stories which every teacher of little children should master as a first essential of her profession. The myths should be selected, first of all, as good literature. They should be stories which the children will love all their lives.

Excerpt from Nature Myths and Stories for Little Children For instance the child has been observing, read ing, and writing about -the sun, the moon, the direction of the wind, the trees, the owers, or the forces that are acting around him. He has had the songs, poems, and pictures connected with these lessons to further enhance his thought, inter est, and observation. He is now given a beautiful myth. He is not expected to interpret it. It is presented for the same purpose that a good picture is placed before him. He feels its beauty, but does not analyze it. If, through his observation or something in his experience, he does see a meaning in the story he has entered a new world of life and beauty. Then comes the question to every thoughtful teacher, Can the repetition of words necessary to the growth of the child's vocabulary be obtained in this way? This may be accomplished if the teacher in plan ning her year's work, sees a close relation between the science, literature, and number work, so that the same words are always recurring, and the interest in each line of work is constant and ever increasing.
