Minor adjustments were made for instructional use while aiming to preserve the author’s simple beauty and narrative charm. The editor emphasizes that the narrative element predominates and that the idyllic sketches, centered on a little donkey, invite interest and sympathy. Notes and a carefully prepared vocabulary support Spanish grammar study, and exercises strengthen review, usage distinctions, and creative expression through résumé-based writing and

y yo contains selections fromboth the first edition of the original work,published by LaLectura,Madrid,I9I4,in its Biblioteca de Juventud,and thecomplete edition,published by Calleja,Madrid,I9I7,as oneof the volumes of Obras de Juan Ramón Jimenez.In the inter-ests of classroom work a few slight changes have been made,but it is hoped that in no case has the simple beauty of theauthor's style been marred.  \nIn making the selections for use in this edition,the editorhas aimed to choose those in which the narrative element pre-dominates,confident that the delicate simplicity and charmingphilosophy of these idyllic sketches will arouse interest andexcite sympathy as does no narrative of the usual sort.Withalmost no exception,pupils delight in reading animal stories,and who could resist the appealing charm of Platero y yo,inwhich the central figure is a little donkey possessing all thequalities of amiability and camaraderie which Stevenson'smouse-colored Modestine so utterly lacked?  \nAlthough the editor believes the material to be eminentlysuitable for second-year classes,the brevity of the chapters,the simplicity of style,the Notes,which are intended to bethorough and to explain all difficult passages,and the carefullyprepared Vocabulary are notable features which should recom-mend its use with any classes that have an understanding ofthe fundamental principles of Spanish grammar.  \nIt is intended that the Exercises will afford a means not onlyof reviewing mere forms but also of distinguishing as to usagebetween words frequently confused,—a phase of foreign lan-  \nPREFACE  \niv  \nguage study that presents difficulties even to students of ad-vanced classes.Especial attention is called to the Redacción,a type of exercise that has been found most helpful in stimu-lating an interest in oral and written résumé.There is muchmechanical monotony in the question-and-answer exercise ifused without variation,and any exercise that will aid in en-couraging a spirit of adventure,a willingness to use new speechunits as a basis for self-expression,is well worth trying.Itis suggested that the pupil be allowed to refer to the key-wordsin giving the résumé and that he be directed to make suchword groups for himself of those chapters not already providedwith the Redacción.It is a valuable exercise to select thesignificant words and phrases,those that suggest in logicalsequence the principal episodes of the narrative as well astheir descriptive background.  \nThe editor gratefully
