I love book lists. Is there any way you could specify which week (from CC) you plan to correlate these books with? Just having the week number would be great. Thanks for posting this!
Alicia, Thanks for stopping by. I've just worked on this during my free time. I won't be using the full list (as there aren't enough funds in our budget to cover that) but rather using it as a guide for books to look for. I hope to be able to edit this with the corresponding weeks at some point but I can't tell you when that will happen. I'm sure you understand.
Sincerely,
Kimberly
Thank you for sharing this book list. My 4 yr old will be starting CC this coming school year and we're so excited. This is an awesome list. Oh, I'm from TX too!!!
Great list! We're beginning Foundations Cycle I in August!
Super helpful! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this amazing list with other CC moms! I am off to search our library's online catalog to see how many of these I can find. Wish me luck! :-)
Thank you for sharing. This is really helpful... we have an incredible library that will hunt down any title I give them! AWESOME!!
Thanks for a fun visit and a great list of books. I, too, love easy reading books to share with my grandkids as they work on their homeschooling projects. I'll be saving this, for sure. :)
And by the by, I found some great biographies and a fun graphic book on the presidency that I've shared at SandwichINK. :)
Have a blessed day!
