Entre Nous: Lectures françaises à l'usage des écoles primaires - I
by Lucie Vos, Jan Ligthart, H. (Hendericus) Scheepstra
About the author
Lucie Vos is known for Entre Nous: Lectures françaises à l'usage des écoles primaires - I, an early-20th-century French reader for primary-school students. The book was published in 1906 and was later preserved by Project Gutenberg, which is why her work remains accessible today.
The title page describes her as a teacher at the secondary school in The Hague. In the preface, she explains that the book was designed to support the teaching of French through simple, engaging reading pieces rather than dry drills alone.
She also worked with Jan Ligthart and H. Scheepstra, with illustrations by J. Berhardina Bokhorst. Although little biographical information seems to survive online, the book itself shows a practical educator interested in making language learning clear, inviting, and child-friendly.
