Thank you for your recommendation of Boy of the Painted Cave - we've just started SOTW and finished reading that last week!

We read The Golden Bull when looking at Mesopotamia and really enjoyed it. It can be difficult to find great books for kids on some of the eras. Lots on Egypt and Rome and some on Greece, but other places are rare. Instead of The Odyssey, we read Argos by Ralph Hardy and found it a great alternative.

Would love an update on how you liked SOTW this year, and the read alouds! I was going between TGTB and this, and have decided on SOTW and starting to plan for next year...though still like the idea of TGTB, too. It’s so hard to pick sometimes 😆

Hi. Are all these books suggested by the author or ones that you included yourself? Just curious. Thank you!

I would recommend twice a year read on July 4th the day that the Declaration of Independence was ratified and signed and on September 17th when the Constitution of the United States was ratified by all 13 Colonies. They do not need to know the meaning of the big words, but definitely talk about them. I have never been one for politics, but too much has been taken for granted. Our Founding Fathers at cost of their own lives and livelihood wrote and signed these documents. Tyranny and Martial Law are on the fringes. God still reigns!!!

Hi! Any suggestions on how to create a curriculum? They are to expensive to buy. Thanks.
