Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Preparatory German Reader for Beginners Much of the reading material ordinarily presented to beginners in German consists of popular fairy tales sometimes even of translations or adaptations from other languages. It has seemed to the author that teachers might prefer simple and graded prose, referring to the life of Germany, allowing at least a glimpse at the history Of the country, and telling something about a few of its most illustrious sons. This, perhaps, may not be quite so amusing; but it is confidently expected that it will prove more interesting. Great care has also been taken in selecting some of the simplest and best of the lyric poetry, which is one of the brightest jewels in Germany's literary crown. I know that even beginners easily appreciate the high value Of these little poems, and that they are precious to the teacher in more than one way. They ennoble the heart that learns to love them they enrich the memory that retains them and help to elevate the moral tone of the class.
