Good books to read aloud to children
written and illustrated by Nathaniel Bluedorn
mother put together this listbooks to read over the years she and Dad have read to us. My parents tried to feed us a diet of nutritious literature so we would build strong minds and develop a good appetite.
I have included short summaries for most books, and I sorted many of the books under subjects: Pioneers, Family Relationships, Young Hero, Young Heroine, etc.??Nathaniel

A complete overview of every civilization’s history. Starts with Adam and Eve and follows the Biblical chronologies. Nations start from the Tower of Babel and are charted by colourful strands. Watch as strands envelope other stands when nations conquer other nations or watch as strands split into two or more as nations collapse. See visually how powerful and dominant nations such as the Holy Roman Empire were ??just about all other nations were absorbed into the Roman strand! It records the leader of each nation and is right up to date with Helen Clarke as New Zealand’s Prime Minister and George Bush as the President of the USA. Based on Biship Ussher’s chronology.

??We use the TimeChart all the time in our homeschooling. If we are reading the Bible or studying history or talking about an event which took place we open up our TimeChart. It helps us see what we are reading or talking about in context with the flow of history and other historical happenings. We LOVE it! ?? ~Happy Home Educated Child

Learning Logic at Home

Logic is a mystery subject. No one knows how to teach it. We’ve seen this need among homeschoolers for a long time. We didn’t know enough about how to teach it ourselves, especially in the upper grades.

The lack of self-teaching materials has been the greatest difficulty. Until recently we were only confident in recommending the book we first used to learn logic, Critical Thinking, by Anita Harnadek. We did not know of other materials which were truly self-teaching. But recently, I decided to make an aggressive search for more good logic books. I reviewed all of the logic materials currently available to homeschoolers, including some other texts which I found over the Internet and through recommendations from logic professors.
