A New System of Home Study
The Book of Knowledge is a new method of
the home. Over 10,000 strik-
educational pictures, many in colors,
and brief interesting articles show and ex-
plain to the child of today the whole cycle
of existence and circle of truth to which he
is entitled by birth. It is the first work of
reference which a child ever really enjoyed
reading. Il expands every faculty of the
child's growing mind and leads him step by
step from his first simple question into all
the departments of knowledge.
A Child Learns Through Curiosity
Curiosity is the beginning of all knowledge.
Do you know any subject about which your
child hms not asked you a dozen questions?
Let him ask as many as he likes, and be sure
to answer them correctly. It is your plain
duty to answer the child's questions or give
him the means of finding the reply himself.
When a child's curiosity voluntarily offers an
opportunity to teach him something he will
never forgel, it would be wrong to let it slip.
The Book of Knowledge was created to sat-
isfy this “Divine Curiosity.” It answers ev=
ery question a child can ask, clearly and in
words he understands. It educates wlfile
it entertains.
