Excerpt from England's Story for Children Before it was called England its name was Britain, and the people who lived in it were Britons. I am going to tell you how it happened that the name of the country was gradually changed from Britain to England. In those old times it was a very different place from what it is now. So many changes have taken place since the far-off days of which I am speak ing that it must be rather difficult for you to imagine what it was like then, and I shall try to help you to understand it.

Excerpt from Stories Selected From the History of England, From the Conquest to the Revolution: For Children Though I have not followed an historical course, yet I have thought it might be useful to arrange my stories in chronological order, and to Select one, and one only, from each reign; and I have prefixed to each the king's name in Whose reign the facts of the story happened - thus the child may be made acquainted with the names and succession of the Kings of england. The dates which I have prefixed are rather for the use of the parents than of the children. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from An Island Story: A Child's History of England 'What a funny letter, Daddy, ' said Spen, as he looked at the narrow envelope which had just arrived, and listened to the crackle of the thin paper. 'Do you think so?' said Daddy. 'It is from home.' 'From home!' said Spen, laughing, 'why. Daddy, this is home.' 'I mean from the old country, Spen.' 'The old country. Daddy?' said Veda, leaving her dolls and coming to lean against her fathers knee, the old country? What do you mean?' 'I mean "the little island in the west" to which we belong, and where I used to live, said Daddy. 'But this is an island, a great big one, Mother says, so how can we belong to a little island?' asked Spen. 'Well, we do - at least, the big island and the little island belong to each other.' 'Oh, Daddy, do 'splain yourself, you are not splaining yourself at all, ' said Veda. 'Well, ' said Daddy with a sigh, 'long, long ago -' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Sunshine and Showers: Stories for the Children of England Sunshine and Showers Two children stood at their father's gate; Two children with golden hair; And their eyes were bright, and their voices glad, Because that the morn was fair; For they said "We will take that long, long walk, To the hawthorn copse, to-day, And gather great bunches of scented flowers From off the scarlet May: And oh! we shall be so happy there, 'T will be sorrow to come away."

Excerpt from Little Stories of England There are two reasons why such books as this may well occasionally receive a period Of the regu lar school time. In that way only will the impor tance of general reading be properly impressed upon many pupils. Only in that way, too, will the teacher have opportunity to give needed ideas about the proper method of general reading. Textbooks in school are usually covered so slowly that children rebel if they have preserved enough, individuality to harbor ideas Of their own. And, as a conse quence, any books that they are free to read in their own way they cover altogether too rapidly. They need to learn a middle way. By reading such stories as these with a class, or by talking them over one by one with a class after the latter have read them, the teacher can give many valuable facts about method that will influence all later general reading. Since general reading of books, maga zines, and papers, as distinguished from strenuous study Of a particular text, constitutes the main part of reading for most persons after their school is past, the magnitude Of this matter is easily apparent.

Excerpt from Best Stories to Tell to Children It is the belief of the publishers, here and in England, that some of the stories ought to be printed separately from these books on method, for the more ready ac cess of children themselves and those whose interest is of a wholly untechnical sort. This is the more de sirable because stories which are especially adapted to be told are equally charming for reading aloud or to one's self. The converse is not true: stories written to be read are rarely suitable for the story-teller's art until they have been skilfully adapted. In other words, those tales which can be and have been told with suc cess are in a sense the chosen few; they, of all the world's stories, are most charming to hear or to read.

Excerpt from The Children's Book: A Collection of the Best and Most Famous Stories and Poems in the English Language The Hare laid himself down midway and took a nap; "for," says he, "I can catch up with the Tortoise when I please." But it seems he overslept himself, for when he came to wake, though he scudded away as fast as possible, the Tortoise had got to the post before him and won the wager. Slow and steady wins the race. The Cat And The Mice. In a certain house there were many Mice. Now a Cat, hearing of this, went there and began to catch them and eat them up one by one. When the Mice were having this sorry time, they said among themselves: "Let us take time by the forelock and make our way to the eaves, that we may not be every one of us destroyed, for since the Cat cannot get there we shall be saved." Now when the Cat could not get at the Mice, he thought something must be done, and began to plan to get them out by some trick. Climbing up to a peg, and throwing himself off, he hung from it and pretended to be dead. One of the Mice peeping out saw him there and said: "Ah, you fellow, if you were a bag of meal itself we wouldn't come out to you." The fable teaches that prudent men, when they have found out rascals, are not to be caught by their make-believe. The Farmer And His Sons. A Farmer who had come to the end of his life wished his sons to make a trial of farming, and calling them to him, said: "Children, I am now finishing my life, but you will find all that belongs to me in the vineyard." So they, thinking it must contain a treasure-pot, took spades and plows, after the death of their father, and eagerly dug up all the soil. The treasure-pot, to be sure, they did not find, but the vineyard, being well dug over and improved, yielded an abundant store of grapes and made them rich. The story teaches that hard work is man's treasure-pot. The Woman And Her Maids. A Widow, who was a notable housekeeper, was wont to wake her Maids and set them at work by cock-crow. And they, taking this very hard, thought it was only necessary to strangle the house cock, for they thought he was the cause of their ills, because he waked the mistress before dawn. When they had done this the lady of the house waked them earlier still, in the very middle of the night, for she could not tell when it was cock-crow. So it is that their own devices become the very breeders of evil to many men. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Children's Stories in English Literature: From Taliesin to Shakespeare Once upon a time a company of daring seamen from the eastern borders of the North Sea, sailing the ocean in search of new adventures, came to a land whose white cliffs had seemed to shine a welcome to them for many a mile across the gray waters. This was the country now known as England, but then called Britain; and the seamen found it to be a green and pleasant land, with safe coasts and good harbors, and inhabited by a race like themselves, brave, strong, and warlike, always eager for battle, and happiest when engaged in deadly combat with some foe as fierce and unrelenting as themselves.
