About This Item
A classic and favorite of Charlotte Mason homeschoolers, it was first written and used within the Calvert School, a school used by many missionary families who used this curriculum when living abroad. It has become a favorite of the Charlotte Mason method, since it relies heavily on the child's imagination to paint of picture of the world internally first, before relying on the concrete usage of maps and globes. Revised by Edward Huey. (there is a pen mark on the outside of the spine) Still has a library check out card in the back of the book!

About The Periscope Collection
The Periscope Collection is an online store physically located in Nashville, TN. The Collection has grown out of my love of all things book-related, and after 30+ years of home schooling. We specialize in old and rare children's books, especially authors such as Tasha Tudor, Robert Lawson, and Marguerite de Angeli. We also focus on early American history, with a particular interest in the Landmark Biographies, the "Book House" series and "The Book of Life." One of our greatest passions is children's historical fiction, from authors like Wilma Pitchford Hays and William O. Steele (a native Tennessean!) and Lois Lenski, from my home state of Connecticut. And for those of you who have a heart for homeschooling, we have collected many books that Charlotte Mason would have called "Living Books": books that reflect the personality of the writer and, unlike a textbook, are not full of what she referred to as "twaddle". Along with Living Books, we also have a selection of Homeschooling helps, from some of homeschooling's wisest veterans. Come browse our Collection and see what you can discover!
