Excerpt from Voice Culture for Children, Vol. 1: A Practical Primer on the Cultivation and Preservation of Young Voices, With Exercises for the Use of Schools, Choirs, Solo-Boys, Etc.; Instructions With so many subjects pressing for attention, few schools are able to devote much time to voice-production and singing, however fully the importance of these subjects may be realised. A boy's vocal career, too, is distressingly short, and it is absolutely necessary to secure the best possible results in the shortest time. I am confident that, so far from necessitating a further expenditure of precious hours, teachers will find that these lessons and the accompanying exercises will, in practice, save time. I have striven throughout to avoid technical and physiological terms and to use only such clear and simple language as youthful scholars can understand. Many of the lessons might, in fact, be read out in class almost word for word, but where explanations are needed the diagrams and illustrations will almost suffice. I have endeavoured always to give the reasons why certain methods are recommended and others deprecated, holding that it is of the utmost importance in singing, where so much depends upon intelligence, that a child should clearly understand the purpose of whatever he or she is asked to do. My task has been one of some little difficulty, for without going deeply into questions which are better dealt with in more elaborate treatises it is by no means easy to explain the essential principles underlying the production of that pure, refined tone to which the singing of children, especially boys, owes its transcendent attractiveness. Reference is more than once made in these pages to the differing vowel pronunciation in the North of England and the South. The matter has a bearing on tone-production the importance of which can hardly be exaggerated, and I am hopeful that the exercises here offered will do something at least towards eliminating that unpleasant throaty enunciation which London children (as an example) both in singing and in speaking, have a tendency to adopt.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Written by a noted laryngologist who devoted most of his career to Caruso, it includes detailed diagrams, instructions, and exercises.

Spencer The world of Caribbean children’s literature finds its roots in folktales and storytelling. As countries distanced themselves from former colonial powers post-1950s, the field has taken a new turn that emerges not just from writers within the region but also from those of its diaspora. Rich in language diversity and history, contemporary Caribbean children’s literature offers a window into the ongoing representations of not only local realities but also the fantasies that structure the genre itself. Young adult literature entered the region in the 1970s, offering much-needed representations of teenage voices and concerns. With the growth of local competitions and publishing awards, the genre has gained momentum, providing a new field of scholarly analyses. Similarly, the field of picture books has also deepened. Caribbean Children's Literature, Volume 1: History, Pedagogy, and Publishing includes general coverage of children’s literary history in the regions where the four major colonial powers have left their imprint; addresses intersections between pedagogy and children’s literature in the Anglophone Caribbean; explores the challenges of producing and publishing picture books; and engages with local authors familiar with the terrain. Local writers come together to discuss writerly concerns and publishing challenges. In new interviews conducted for this volume, international authors Edwidge Danticat, Junot Díaz, and Olive Senior discuss their transition from writing for adults to creating picture books for children.
This "intense reading experience"* is a Printz Honor Book. Shawn McDaniel's life is not what it may seem to anyone looking at him. He is glued to his wheelchair, unable to voluntarily move a muscle—he can't even move his eyes. For all Shawn's father knows, his son may be suffering. Shawn may want a release. And as long as he is unable to communicate his true feelings to his father, Shawn's life is in danger. To the world, Shawn's senses seem dead. Within these pages, however, we meet a side of him that no one else has seen—a spirit that is rich beyond imagining, breathing life. *Booklist starred review
