Miss Minnie's Method

The right way to teach literature to young people.

When she was hardly more than a girl, Miss Minnie had gone away to a teacher's college and prepared herself to teach by learning many cunning methods that she never afterwards used. For Miss Minnie loved children, and she loved books, and she taught merely by introducing the one to the other.  ~ Wendell Berry, "A Consent,” in That Distant Place
