Publisher's Synopsis
Teach your child to read in the simple, reliable, old-fashioned way, using McGuffey's First Eclectic Reader (revised edition). This book continues reading instruction from McGuffey's Eclectic Primer. The book includes "slate exercises" of the script alphabet and charming vintage illustrations to enhance the lessons. The McGuffey Readers are among the best-known schoolbooks in the history of American education, having sold more than 120 million copies since their first publication in 1836. They are still in use today. This is a photographic facsimile of the original edition, printed on acid-free, archival-quality paper with a hardback case-laminate binding for long life and durability.
