Description:  <\/span>The Fourth Reader has been made essentially the book of myths and legends because it is held by the authors that these stories represent the next step in the development of the child’s interests in literature. In this book the child reads eighteen of the best myths and legends, including some from Greek, Norse, German, Austrian, and American sources. The poetry is selected with the same care as in the earlier books, with special reference to the child’s feeling for rhythm, love of animated nature, and enjoyment of fun. Includes 37 black and white illustrations.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
