A perennially popular collection of short stories, poems, legends, and myths from great works of literature that are especially appropriate for parents to read aloud to their children aged five to twelve.
Selections, including some rewritten for reading aloud, from poems, novels, and plays by Homer, Mallory, Shakespeare, Dickens, Hawthorne, Twain, and other well-known authors.
William F. Russell is the author of The Parents' Handbook to Grammar and Usage, Classics to Read Aloud to Your Children, and More Classics to Read Aloud to Your Children. Dr. Russell lives in Carmichael, California, and lectures widely on language and the ways parents--and teachers--can improve the achievement levels of children.
