The peculiaritj of both thèse books i^ that the stories are told in the form of dialogues, and in this way an 'nnterest is kept up in them, whicb mère dialogues, as such, could not give. The teacher will readily see the advantages of a book of this kind for teaching te read the Freuct language as spoken, and thereby to speak it himself.

The type is large, and there is an illustration to each story.

In the publication of this reyised and improved édition, a debt due to the public for its appréciation of it for many years haa been paid.
