WHEN I was very, very little, I hated history more than all my other
lessons put together, because I had to learn it out of a horrid little
book, called somebody's "Outlines of English History"; and it seemed to
be all the names of the kings and the dates of battles, and, believing
it to be nothing else, I hated it accordingly.
I hope you do not think anything so foolish, because, really, history is
a story, a story of things that happened to real live people in our
England years ago; and the things that are happening here and now, and
that are put in the newspapers, will be history for little children one
of these days.
The people in those old times were the same kind of people who live now.
Mothers loved their children then, and fathers worked for them, just as
mothers and fathers do now, and children then were good or bad, as the
case might be, just as little children are now. And the people you read
about in history were real live people, who were good and bad, and glad
and sorry, just as people are now-a-days.
