Synopsis
This classical reading guide will help you choose the best books for K-12 reading by level, genre, and more! In this information age, it is sometimes hard to know how to choose between the sea of options and resources that present themselves at every turn. When you are choosing what books your children or students will read, the stakes are especially high. That is why we have put years of research into The Classical Reader, collecting and analyzing the K 12 reading recommendations of classical educators from around the country, seeking those readings that have been important and pleasurable to generations of students. This pithy book includes recommendations for reading at each grade level, noting each selection's level of difficulty and genre. The Classical Reader provides a way to keep a record of what your student has read and will also help you to plan future reading. This book is a valuable resource for every school and homeschool family for everything from book reports to reading for pleasure. This extensive revised edition of the formerly titled A Reader s Guide is a veritable cave of dragon loot, an embarrassment of riches that will provide years of instruction and delight and help to instill a lifelong love of reading.

Review
This booklet divides the K-12 experience into parts, according to the classical education model. Books worth your child's time to read are listed for each step of their education. Not all books will appeal to each child, but exposing them to these great titles will give children a very well rounded literary experience. It is perfect for the home schooled child, practical for a private school education, and instructive for the classical school model. Space is available at the end of each section to record other titles your child reads. A column is included to check off those titles that have been read. This is also a fine spot to record the date. In this way, the booklet can serve as a life long journal of books read. You will recognize many titles at the high school level as timeless classics! It is an ambitious list! The books preface helps to explain its objectives and is worth reading. --M. Bey (review of previous version)
