- "The Rollo Philosophy relates rather to their effect upon the little reader's habits of thinking, reasoning, and observation, than to the additions they may make to his stock of knowledge ... Questions have been added (at the end of each chapter) to facilitate the use of the books in cases where parents or teachers may make the reading of them a regualr exercise of instruction"--Page 6.
