A chapter on the Norsemen comes before that of the discovery by Columbus. More interest, the author thinks, should be aroused concerning the brave sailors who came before the Genoese discoverer In this connection the teacher should read to her children about Lief Ericson and his voyage along our shores.

The author trusts that this simple reading book may be acceptable to the many teachers who have been seeking in vain, as she has, to find something in its line within the grasp of very young minds.
