Some of Our Favorite Books

(This post contains affiliate links)

Survey says...



Today, we would like to share with you a few of our favorite books.  Here is a list of our family favorites.  Let me tell you, it was not easy to choose!


Family Choice

If you have been a reader here before you probably already guessed our number 1 pick is The Bible. We use different versions but NLT is the most used.  We also use Bible Hub for parallel readings.  I have also shared some of our favorite Bible devotions in the video below.

Jonathan - 12th grade 

Jonathan's book choice was a recent book he was introduced to while completing the Illuminating Literature course.  I think the course is really helping him to enjoy literature more than ever.  The book he chose was Pudd’nhead Wilson by Mark Twain. The series he has read and recommends is The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings Series.

Stephen - 9th grade

 
Stephen chose to recommend the series of The Chronicles of Narnia and his all time favorite 2 books come from that series as well - The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, and Prince Caspian.

Sarah - 7th grade 

Sarah chose any Ameila Bedelia book as her favorite of all time and also recommends The Little House on the Prairie series.
Me (Mom)

My main reading genre usually aligns with self help, nonfiction so I chose Own Your Life by Sally Clarkson or any other book by her as well!  



For my homeschool mamas - I would also recommend Homeschool Supermom... NOT! When Grace Meets Homeschooling.

So there you have it - just a few of our favorites that might interest you for the upcoming year!  Happy Reading!

Blogging Through The Alphabet With God's Word - Letter I is for...

Sharing a little ABC's of the Bible!

I'm teaching these to my preschool class and if 3-4 year old preschoolers can memorize them, surely we can too! We are also learning the ASL alphabet along with the verses too.

I is for...John 14:6 - Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

This week is a little bit different. It doesn't actually start with the Letter I but when we say it we start with "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. Then I'll say, "Who says that?" and the children will answer, "Jesus"!
