Books Galore!

Since our new school books came, I spent some time the past week organizing our bookshelf. I did have all of Core 3 packed away and decided that it was better to put everything out. Now, I know compared to some of you, this collection is quite small. Most of these books are from Sonlight Cores 1-5.

The Great Turkey Walk, Gone Away Lake, Little Britches, Moccasin Trail, and Old Yeller were some of Drake's favorite books this year. I enjoyed reading Lincoln: A Photobiography to Drake and cried like a baby on the part when Lincoln was shot. It was sad. Of course I knew he was assassinated, but it was all in the moment I guess.

Understood Betsy, The Usborne Time Traveler, The Usborne Book of World History, Magic School Bus at the Waterworks, Follow My Leader, and Greek Myths are some of Ava's favorites.

The George Muller Book is one of my favorites from Core 1 history. I'm happy that we will get to read more in the series.

Core 3 books

The Sign of the Beaver is Drake's favorite book from this core. I think I was all choked up during that story too.~New books that we can't wait to dig into~

Ah, just reading the titles brings back so many wondering memories [smile].

I am so jealous :-)

I just started again with my little ones, all I have is P 3/4 and P 4/5. But am planning to add Core K and Core 1 this year.

Still a long way from all those beautiful books.
