Beschreibung

"Stories of Great Americans for Little Americans" is a seminal collection that offers a captivating portrayal of notable figures in American history, tailored specifically for a younger audience. Edward Eggleston employs a narrative style that is both accessible and engaging, combining vivid storytelling with moral lessons that resonate with young readers. Set against the backdrop of post-Civil War America, this work serves as an early example of juvenile literature that seeks to instill national pride and a sense of identity through the stories of historical icons, cleverly intertwining both fact and fiction to educate while entertaining. Edward Eggleston, a prominent historian and author of the 19th century, was deeply invested in the American historical narrative and its educational implications. His own experiences growing up in Indiana during a transformative period in American history undoubtedly shaped his vision of crafting a series that could inspire and inform the nation's youth. Eggleston's passion for literature and education is evident in his commitment to fostering a love of reading in children, reflecting his belief in the power of stories to shape character and ideals. This enchanting collection is highly recommended for educators, parents, and young readers alike, offering an engaging introduction to America's rich history. Through Eggleston's masterful storytelling, children will not only learn about great figures like George Washington and Abraham Lincoln but also develop a lasting appreciation for the values of courage, integrity, and perseverance that these figures embody.

    The Veldt by Ray Bradbury - Do you wonder what goes on in your children’s minds? The Hadleys did–and they dared enter the forbidden doorway to The World The Children Made. 
    “George, I wish you’d look at the nursery.” 
    “What’s wrong with it?” 
    “I don’t know.” 
    “Well, then.” 
    “I just want you to look at it, is all, or call a psychologist in to look at it.” 
    “What would a psychologist want with a nursery?” “ 
    You know very well what he’d want.” His wife paused in the middle of the kitchen and watched the stove busy humming to itself, making supper for four. “It’s just that the nursery is different now than it was.” 
    “All right, let’s have a look.” They walked down the hall of their soundproofed Happylife Home, which had cost them thirty thousand dollars installed, this house which clothed and fed and rocked them to sleep and played and sang and was good to them. Their approach sensitized a switch somewhere and the nursery light flicked on when they came within ten feet of it. Similarly, behind them, in the halls, lights went on and off as they left them behind, with a soft automaticity. 
    “Well,” said George Hadley. They stood on the grass-like floor of the nursery. It was forty feet across by forty feet long and thirty feet high; it had cost half again as much as the rest of the house. “But nothing’s too good for our children,” George had said.
