Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jones Fifth Reader This book is intended as a basal reader for pupils of the sixth, seventh, and eighth years in school. These years make up a period of high enthusiasms and noble impulses. During this period ideals of life and conduct are rapidly shaping them selves in the minds of the growing girls and boys. Susceptible as they are at this age to evil influences, they yet respond most readily to the call of higher motives. Noble, daring, and heroic action, when properly pictured to them, seems native to the human spirit. To rouse and sustain these noble ambitions, to make the right in human action seem reasonable and desirable, to give that general intelligence which underlies helpful social cooperation, and, above all, to permeate this growing intelligence with a pure and deep love for our country and its institutions, - is a dominant purpose of this reader. The selections are taken from the best literature of the English language. A wide range of themes gives breadth and scope to the imagination as well as a foundation for general intelligence as opposed to technical knowledge.
