About This Book
" A musical thought is one spoken by a mind that has penetrated into the inmost heart of a thing; detected the inmost mystery of it; namely, the melody which lies hidden in it; the inward harmony of coherence which is its soul, whereby it exists and has a right to be, here in this world." — Carlyle.

"By giving thought some outward shape, we try to lead a child from matter dull and dry, to matter's deeper meaning by-and-by."— Froebel.

'' For in Nature's every word God's own Father-voice is heard. A child's sense we must early rouse to trace The inner meaning in the outward face. Once let a baby this connection seize, He'll find his own way to his goal with ease. He to whom Nature law and God reveals, Finds that about him God's own peace he feels."—Froebel.
