Summary | "Children's Literature" by Charles Madison Curry and Erle Elsworth Clippinger is a textbook of sources for teachers and teacher-training classes written in the early 20th century. The book aims to serve as a comprehensive guide for educators, offering a selection of literary materials appropriate for children, along with notes, bibliographies, and practical recommendations for teaching literature effectively. It explores both traditional and modern children's literature, providing insights into its historical development and significance in education. The opening of the book establishes its core purpose, emphasizing the need for teachers to familiarize themselves with traditional storytelling and children's literature as a means of enriching their teaching practice. It notes that many aspiring educators may not have a solid grounding in basic traditional materials like folk tales, nursery rhymes, and fables, which are essential for engaging young learners. The authors convey the importance of presenting literature not merely as a reading exercise but as a way to instill a love for storytelling and appreciation for the arts, crucial for developing a connection between teachers and students.
