Literature

Living books are written by authors who love their subject, in expressive, ideas-rich language, the opposite of dry textbooks and the opposite of twaddle. Kindred Thicket reads them aloud for you, clearly and warmly, so the whole family can gather in for a reading, with free cards and light companions for copywork and narration.

Revised Edition

Aesop's Fables

A read-aloud of Aesop's Fables from the much-loved Milo Winter 1919 edition, with free character cards and coloring pages and a companion guide.
