Saved By Simple Logic
Saved By Simple Logic is written for older children and young adults. It teaches the ability to think, analyse, and learn. Each chapter begins with a short story that includes carefully chosen phrases, vocabulary, and ideas for discussion. Parents and teachers will be able to encourage children to learn new words, understand their meaning, and explore moral and ethical questions. For example, here are several questions for discussion and vocabulary from the story entitled "Misfortunes Never Come Singly": Do you think it is wise to abuse power or knowledge? Why do you think that corruption is bad for the country? If you had a friend who did a bad thing, would you cover up for him? Why? Vocabulary: fluency, panacea, renounce, serendipitous, stern, sycophant, adorn, weak, stiff, abet, evil, abjure, acrimonious, bitter, and flatterer.
