The Library

Every living book we read aloud for you. Kindred Thicket prepares each lesson for three connected formats, YouTube video, Listening Grove audio, and Yoto-compatible listening, with a free bonus set to print and a done-for-you companion guide that gathers the rest of the lesson, the maps, copywork, narration support, and notes, prepared in one place. The library is growing, and each title page shows which formats are currently available.
