What The Readers are Reading: Part the Third

Here's Part the Third of what you are reading. This list has some of my favorites: home education materials by Charlotte Mason, Jesse Wise and Susan Bauer; The Handbook of Nature Study, a well-used nature resource in our house; Howard Pyle, L.M. Montgomery, E. Nesbit, Mortimer Adler, Edith Schaeffer, and Tolkien, too. You have fine taste, my dear readers.

Enjoy! May you find some old friends and make some new ones. There are so many interesting things to learn, aren't there?

Part the Fourth will come when my linking fingers are ready for some more exercise.
