Reading aloud (good literature) has been the backbone of our home educating - and our home culture in general. It's been such a gift to my husband and I to read aloud books that we missed reading as children to our own children. Also, I second the recommendation of A Landscape with Dragons by Michael D. O'Brien. I've found so many amazing books through following the feast of titles offered in the back of the book.

Melisa, Thank you for this list, I used to hate history in school. However, as I teach my son history, I'm learning history all over again, and have come to understand its importance. After reading a few chapters of Benhur, I realized the value of good historical fiction.

This list is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks again.
