For homeschool families

A shelf for each child.

Homeschool families use the same editions schools do, one copy for each child. The margin is ruled for the child’s own notes, and the book stays theirs.

How families use them

Your plan, our books.

  • Follow our sequence

    Four titles a year for grades 5 through 12, each placed where classical programs most often teach it. We built it from the reading lists of 28 classical schools and homeschool programs.

  • Or follow your curriculum

    Buy the titles your program assigns. The numbered lines make it easy to find a passage, whatever guide you read alongside.

  • One copy for each child

    A book with one reader’s notes in it belongs to that reader. Brothers and sisters each keep their own.

  • Co-ops

    A co-op class that orders 20 or more copies of one title pays the school price, $22.72 a copy.

$34.95 a copy

Every chapter closes with a prompt written for the grade. This one closes the first chapter of Heidi, a fifth-grade title:

Commonplace

Dete brings the child up the mountain, hands her over to a grandfather the whole village is afraid of, and hurries down again to a good place in Frankfurt. The women call after her from every door, and she runs faster. Name what she owed the child, and what she told herself instead.

At the close of Chapter I, Heidi.
