READING TO CHILDREN
E - B O O K

Reading to children each day has become the backbone of our family’s homeschooling—lifting burdens, easing budgets, stimulating imaginations, and providing heart-training opportunities.

I hope this Christian ebook
provides you with practical insights
and that you will…
  • discover the richness of a family reading time,

  • develop discernment about the principles you want to instill in your children’s lives and your own,

  • be encouraged to use two often overlooked tools for homeschooling: the library and your home,

  • recognize the Voice of the Lord for your particular circumstances; and

  • grasp how the Spirit of God leads you as you lead your children.

Two purchase options available:

Option 1: American Revolution: Reading List and Sample Dialogues

Option 2: Sample Dialogues only

American Revolution

  • Part 1, Reading List
  • Part 2, Sample Dialogues

Dry reading list?
No way!

This is an indispensable tool for homeschoolers organized in a highly enjoyable readable format.

The tedious and time-consuming task of researching materials for this topic is already done for you.

The more than 70 selections presented appeal to various ages of children and adults and are conveniently presented in a chronological and colorful format.

You will love using this resource!

Even though this ebook is based on the American Revolution, it offers you much more than the extensive Reading List and Historical Timelines in Part 1.

PART 1 HIGHLIGHTS

Table of Contents, Part 1: Reading List

Page Excerpt, Part 1: Reading List

A. Detailed Timelines

B. Reading List Titles

  1. Historical fiction—
    Living Books

  2. Non-fiction—Informational Books

  3. DVDs—movies and documentaries

C. Spines

  1. French & Indian Wars
  2. Pre-Revolution
  3. American Revolution

Throughout the book, I have included personal funnies from our family to yours and tips for moms:

  • Themes to discuss

  • ”Just for fun” media suggestions

  • Biblical parenting ideas

  • Book series to explore

  • Favorite authors to investigate

And in Part 2, Sample Dialogues, I share with you one afternoon in our family’s reading area as I read with my children the book Five Smooth Stones by Kristiana Gregory.

PART 2 HIGHLIGHTS

One mom who read this ebook explained it well:

“So much character training came out of Part 2 of this ebook—

  • how to treat others,
  • using power wisely,
  • relationship Christians versus religious Christians,
  • rules and images,
  • good attitudes to learning new skills,
  • discernment,
  • not focusing on differences but focusing on Jesus,
  • choosing friends,
  • figures of speech,
  • and more.

WOW!

I really think that if parents can realise the amazing teaching and training that takes place during reading time together,
they will only be
encouraged to try it!

~ Mandi F., Zimbabwe


There was something to chew on
on each page.

~ Diane V., Canada

I also enjoyed the references to your site and your little symbols. It was very clear to follow.”

~ Mandi F., Zimbabwe

Not interested in the Reading List?

Because some of you moms—especially international moms—may not be interested in a Reading List about the American Revolution, I am offering

Part 2: Sample Dialogues
as a separate ebook.

The 13 dialogues highlight principles that you can apply to your Family Reading Time, no matter what historical period, country, or subject you may be highlighting in your home for a particular season.

Sample Dialogues

30 pages

I hope that while reading to children each day, you will move beyond the yawns of simply reading what seems like another boring book to the invigorating heights of growing together with your children.

You yourself, Mom, will develop discernment to hear from the Lord as you apply a few of the Biblical parenting principles outlined in the ebook.

I pray that reading to children—to your particular children—becomes the highlight of their day and yours!

Blessings to you as you discover
how God leads you
as you lead your children.
