Excerpt from The Girl and the Kingdom: Learning to Teach
It has been said that Kate Douglas Wiggin's human and humorous appeal never fails to inspire some one in the cause of humanity. It is quite within the power of the army of 16,000 teachers in California to present the nation with a state that has wholly eradicated illiteracy. The masses of unassimilated foreigners in this country are a menace to its government. They can never fully understand our institutions until they can read our language. It is our peculiar responsibility as teachers to give of our talent to this cause as generously as Kate Douglas Wiggin has given of hers.
