THE, RYERSON CANADIAN HISTORY
READERS

feo DESIGNED to meet a real need of the schoolroom, |

Every wide-awake teacher has long recognized the value
of supplementary readers, simple and interesting enough to
be placed in the hands of the pupils.

Each reader contains a wealth of historical information,
and completely covers the history of our country through its
great characters and events. These books are written in a
charming and vivid manner, and will be valued, not only as
history readers, but also as lessons in literary appreciation, for
the teaching of history and literature ought to go hand in hand.

“T am very interested in these booklets and should like to
place a set in every school in the province.”—Henry F. Munro,
M.A., LL.D., Superintendent of Education, Halifax, Nova
Scotia.

“We have prescribed several of the Ryerson History
Readers for use in our elementary schools . . . I believe they
will become more and. more popular as time passes.” —
S. J. Willis, LL.D., Superintendent of Education, Victoria, B.C.

“These little books are admirably adapted for use in our
schools. ‘They, provide a fund of interesting information
arranged in very readable form, and should prove a real help
in arousing and maintaining interest in the events that con-
stitute the history of our country.”—A. &. Torrie, M.A.,
Principal, Normal School, Camrose, Alta.

“From my point of view these little booklets fill admirably
the purpose for which they were designed. They say enough—
but not too much. Big books are tiresome to young people.
There are so many outside distractions for them these days and
we must conform to circumstances. Your booklets are excel-
lent in every way and will, I hope, be very cordially received.”
—M. Pierre Georges Roy, Provincial Archivist, Quebec.

“We would like 350 sets—each set to contain 40 numbers
published, as marked with an asterisk on the enclosed leaf.”—
A Maritime Department of Education.

“Children will really know ‘and learn to love Canadian
History when it is introduced by such charming booklets.
They meet the real need of the schoolroom,.”—The Canadian
Teacher.
