Reseñas
Nature in story form
RogerL
These 84 nature stories were created as teaching tools for elementary school students. So why as a grown man did I choose this? Itâs because I am a big fan of reader, Laura Victoria. I find that her extraordinary reading skills and her charming nuance of southern accent has a calming effect on me and brings back memories of my Southern family in Alabama and Georgia. Author Edith Howes was a remarkable person. It comes as little surprise to find she was a teacher. It seems to me, for every 10,000 people who accept how things are, there is one person who sees needed improvements and does something about it. Edith Howes is the Florence Nightingale of education. As a young teacher she saw students housed in abominable dilapidated school rooms where teaching was strictly by rote. Edith felt learning could be improved if presented in story form to young children. Hence this book, âThe Sunâs Babiesâ. The title makes sense when I recall learning as a five year old that the âSun is the giver of all lifeâ according to scientist. The ancients knew this and the sun was worshiped as a god. Indeed, in a sense, all living things are the sunâs babies. It is readily apparent that Edith had a deep love and sense of wonder for nature; something she wanted to share with young people. If my kids were young again, I would put aside a âfamily timeâ each week to let them hear one or two chapters of this book. And today, with the miracle of Google, you can pull up photos of the current subject. Reader Laura Caldwell ( aka Laura Victoria) presented us with another book, âRuth of Bostonâ where a young girl described education in early America in a Puritan school. One cannot help comparing the methods of Edith Howes with Puritan schools where the teachers were much more talented at whipping students than teaching them. The world owes much to Edith Howes.
