I have trouble keeping track of things. If our reading list for 2011 is in the “cloud” I can’t lose it, right? It won’t be another list on a piece of paper that sneaks under the bed, only to be found next year. Since we’ve started homeschooling our reading list has grown quite large–which I love! Most of the books are part of our curriculum. (If you’re a Sonlight family you’ll recognize lots of these titles. ) We read lots of short books, too many to list, so I’m only including chapter books which are now read by all but two in our family now.
