The Baldwin Project


http://www.mainlesson.com/main/displayarticle.php?article=feature

I'm not sure if many people know about the Baldwin Project so I'd like to share. If you'll click on the link it will take you to a website dedicated to bringing lost classics to children. All resources are free, online. It is well worth a visit.

The description at the site reads:

"The Baldwin Project seeks to make available online a comprehensive collection of resources for parents and teachers of children. Our focus, initially, is on literature for children that is in the public domain in the United States. This includes all works first published before 1923. The period from 1880 or so until 1922 offers a wealth of material in all categories, including: Nursery Rhymes, Fables, Folk Tales, Myths, Legends and Hero Stories, Literary Fairy Tales, Bible Stories, Nature Stories, Biography, History, Fiction, Poetry, Storytelling, Games, and Craft Activities."

Enjoy!
