A Book List

Some of you have asked for more
specifics on the books we have
used in our Homeschool...

I reviewed some of my notes from
years past and have a partial list
for you....

History:
The Thieves of Ostia
The Secrets of Vesuvius
The Assassins of Rome


The Broken Song
Fire in the Hills


The Earth Dragon Awakes

Anastasia
The Journal of Douglas Allen Deeds
Isabel, Jewel of Castilla


Mary Slessor

The Hittite Warrior

Cooper Kids – Just for Fun...
Secret of the Desert Stone
Trapped at the Bottom of the Sea
Door in the Dragon’s Throat
Escape from the Island of Aquarius
The Tombs of Anak


Sutter’s Cross

Many of the books on this list were from a school
year where we worked more in Unit Study.
I had the kids make a geography map book
about each place we studied. They enjoyed
documenting the many places and I loved making
the history, english, science and literature
connections.
I would place many of these at the 5th - 9th
grade level. Of course, you should always
preview the books and judge for yourselves.

Enjoy!
