The Classical Reader: A Comprehensive Reading Guide for K-12 Students

by Leslie Rayner, Lauraine Gustafson (Editor), Christopher Perrin

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.

I've worked my copy ragged and apparently never recorded it on Goodreads. One of my top four "book list books" I use.

This is not a story or book to read, but a list of classical books that you should read. I am slowly working through the lists, and have found that in some cases I am really glad I have the list because some of the charming books I never would have found without the list. But other books I do not enjoy as much, and that might just be personal preference. I also like that this book has a space for you to add books that you think should be on the list.
