The New England Primer Coloring Book Edition The Complete Primer in a New Child-Friendly Format! Oversized paperback, 108 pages ISBN: 978-1-731364999 Available through Amazon.com
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” Lay the foundation of all true education as you teach your child to read with this classic text used by the Puritans and the founding fathers. Known as the “little Bible of New England,” the New England Primer has been the standard text in elementary American education for centuries. The book by which numerous founding fathers first learned their letters, the Primer was perhaps also the first book in which these men were exposed to the rudiments of Christianity. Education is never neutral, and the New England Primer beautifully illustrates this fact by providing an elementary reading curriculum based solely on the Word of God and Biblical teaching. From a child’s first introduction to the English alphabet to their memorization of the Ten Commandments and other choice Scriptural passages, the art of reading is interwoven within and overshadowed by the true purpose of all education: the study of God. Fully re-typeset and featuring updated spelling and contemporary letter formations, the New England Primer of the Puritan and Revolutionary era is now rendered easily accessible to the modern student and is prepared to again take its role as an essential text of Christian education. As contemporary American education distances itself farther and farther from historic Christianity, the New England Primer rises again to issue a clarion call to return to the true—and only—foundation of genuine education: the fear of the Lord.
