PREFACE.

[ocr errors]

THE Compiler of this little book has had in view to teach the young beginner as many French words as possible in the least tedious manner. He has found by experience that what children dislike most to learn are lists of words, however useful and well chosen, and that they very soon get weary of disconnected sentences, but commit to memory most

readily a short nursery rhyme, anecdote, or fable. Hence the seiection he has made.
