Filled with happy tales, good morals, and a systematic approach to teaching reading, it is clear why McGuffey's Readers have been among the most loved and most used books in American history. McGuffey's Primer starts out with the basics of the alphabet and gradually builds up the phonics skills and sight word recognition until the child is reading full paragraphs and narratives. The strength of this Primer is in its sequential gradation of skills. Its beauty is in its timeless stories.
