Read Aloud:
English Literature for Boys and Girls. We are on Dryden this week.
Famous Men of the Middle Ages. We are on Robert the Bruce.
A Little History of the World. This book is growing on me after a bad start.
Just David. This is growing on me also. I hope we can finish it in the next couple of weeks.
The Magician's Nephew. Finish this week.
Dave Barry Slept Here (edited by me) They were all picking it up and reading it so I thought it would be safer if I read it out loud. It is a little confusing for Alex.

Ambleside Time:
Russian Fairy Tales
Little Pilgrim's Progress
Asking Father. I keep avoiding this one.
Pilgrim Stories by Pumphrey and old favorite revisited.
A Thanksgiving Story in Vermont by Jeff Barth
