$20 · First Progressive Primer

From New Zealand Children’s Basal Reader entitled “First Progressive Primer - Whitcombs Progressive Series.” The cover features two children reading under a tree and a large group of children running to join them. Condition fair for a reader that appears to be from 1929. Some wear also to the cover and spine, some colour decoration internally. Thousands of school children from New Zealand were taught reading with the aid of the Whitcombe’s Progressive reading series.
