Book Summary :

School readers before Gray’s books were mostly text with excerpts from literature or the Bible. Illustrations were few. Gray’s classroom experiences in Adams County had taught him that children could learn to read more easily by reversing that equation. He saw the value of illustration rather than description in telling stories in a way to interest children in reading. Simple stories. Few words. Large, color illustrations.
