This antique educational children's book is transcribed here for several reasons. Despite its age, it retains educative value for children. Firstly, many of the texts are as accurate and informative as they were when originally written well over a century ago. Secondly, these texts provide insight into what children of the late 19th century were taught. Where prudent, we have updated and modernized the text.
