congenial atmosphere created in a cozy room with oil the family around with bowls of popcorn about anil a grate fire going a child could hardly help but be inspired with a love of hooks if he saw enjoy ing good reading Two teachers of experience saw advantages to the child in having supplementary books right in the classroom rather than all in a school library In speaking of public libraries
