Homeschool Memoirs #24: Reading List
Posted in HomeSchool Memoirs
Reading always improves your mind and knowledge of things of the past, present, and your opinion and views on the future. It’s essential to a proper education. I have never enjoyed reading as much as I should have, but as of late taken it’s been taking up some of my time.
THEME
I know many of you either have a long list of books yourself or have one for the children for schooling. Please share your lists of reading material for this year. You can put them in any way you like - by genre, age, author, fiction, subject. You can also share your list from last year.
This is what we are reading this year:
~ Christian Heroes: Then and Now by Janet & Geoff Benge
~ George Muller ~ The Guardian of Bristol's Orphans
~ Nate Saint ~ On a Wing and a Prayer
~ David Livingstone ~ Africa's Trailblazer
~ Gladys Aylward ~ The Adventure of a Lifetime
~ Amy Carmichael ~ Rescuer of Precious Gems
~ Five Little Peppers and How They Grow ~ Margaret Sidney
~ Owls in the Family ~ Farley Mowat
~ My Side of the Mountain ~ Jean George
~ On the Far Side of the Mountain ~ Jean George
~ The Call of the Wild ~ Jack London
~ The Adventures of Tom Sawyer ~ Mark Twain

I hope your kids enjoy Tom Sawyer as much as my oldest did, who wanted to know if there was a whole series, like Encyclopedia Brown. :-)

I love the biographies of missionaries. I've got a few on my shelf that need to be added to my list.
My list is here:

Kim!! How are you? I am such a lousy friend. Mike had been planning to go to Sheffield Mills to see the eagles for a couple of weeks now, and off we went today. I had no idea until we got in the car how close we were to you!! Mike and Jeremy had a hockey game to go to ( the Mooseheads) early this evening, so we were in a bit of a push to get back home again by the time we finished touring some of the harbours and back roads. I should have paid more attention and maybe we could have met you guys there, I just wasn't thinking. I can't wait to get together with you, and I really blew it today. I hope you are doing well, I will email you this week.
Love,
Ellie
