Original and useful, clearly printed, and strongly bound; I have no doubt of their success."-Mr. SPENSER, Board School, Nottingham.

"The way the author trains the children to observe and think in the Crown Readers through these lessons, surpasses anything I have ever seen in a First Standard Reader. I believe they will make a really good preparation for a Second Standard course."-J. READ, Board School, Leicester.

The Crown Readers present the following distinctive features:

1. They are printed from new type, the Primer and Standard I. being particularly bold and distinct, to suit the eyes of very young children.

2. The series is ILLUSTRATED, but not so excessively as to limit unnecessarily the amount of space for the Reading Lessons.

3. ORIGINALITY is a main feature of the series, as recently Readers have been plentifully brought out as mere reprints of writers whose copyright has lapsed.

4. The powers of OBSERVATION of the children are sought to be trained in the Crown Readers, which contain a large amount of knowledge of common objects and natural phenomena, leading up to the study of scientific subjects.

5. The matter is carefully graduated to suit the varying capacities of the Standards.

6. The Readers are also Spelling Books, the difficult words being placed at the head of every lesson, and also at the end of the book in the advanced books of the serics.

7. A middle course has been steered between the inadequate and the excessive sizes of different sets; and while ample variety is furnished, there is no more offered than each Standard can fairly get up during the year.

8. Sets of questions are appended to each of the Lessons, where this is desirable, for the cultivation of intelligence in the children, and to test and train their attention.

9. Copious Dictation Exercises are given in Standard I.
10. The binding of the series throughout is strong and durable.
