Rollo learning to read

Should you like to know how Rollo learned to read? I will tell you. It is very hard work to learn to read, and it takes a great while to do it. I will tell you how Rollo did it. One evening Rollo was sitting on the floor by the side of the fire, playing with his blocks. He was trying to build a meeting-house. He could make the meeting-house very well, all except the steeple, but the steeple would tumble down. Presently his father said, “Rollo, you may put your blocks into the basket, and put the basket in its place, in the closet, and then come to me.” Rollo obeyed. Then Rollo’s father took him up into his lap, and took a little book out of his pocket. Rollo was glad. He thought he was going to look at some pictures. But he was disappointed. He was disappointed; that is, he found there were no pictures in the book, and was sorry. His father said, “I suppose you thought there were pictures in this book.” “Yes, sir,” said Rollo. “There are none,” said his father; “I have not got this book to amuse you. I am going to have you learn to read out of it, and learning to read is hard work.” Rollo was very glad when he heard this. He wanted to learn to read, so that he could read story books himself alone, and he thought that learning to read was very pleasant, easy work. His father knew that he thought so, and therefore he said, “I suppose you are glad that you are going to learn to read, but it is harder work, and will take longer time than you think. You will get tired very often, before you have learned, and you will want to stop. But you must not stop.” “What,” said Rollo, “must not I stop once—at all—all the time, till I have learned to read?” “Oh yes,” said his father; “I do not mean that you must be learning to read all the time;—you will only read a little while every day.
