Originally published in 1940. This book studies the facts regarding
the actual reading of children aged 12 to 15 years, but is no mere
compendium. It analyses the number and sorts of newspapers, books,
magazines, poems and plays which are read during one month by boys
and girls in senior and secondary schools, either in school or at
home. The children's characteristic tastes and the changes in their
tastes as they grow from 12 to 15 are clearly set out. The author
identifies that the teacher's main function should be to supply and
open up an ample range of literature suitable to the given age and
that private reading in school is the realm where the teacher may
exert the most exemplary influence. An excellent insight into the
history of education.
