I'm just so excited to start this year's homeschool history adventure. Last year we used Beautiful Feet's Early American History for the primary level, as our spine; it was such a good year for us. Great books, rabbit holes a plenty, juicy conversations - what's not to love?!
So this year we decided to do
another year with Beautiful Feet, with the History of the Horse curriculum. I've been
slowly gathering bits and pieces for this, with a thrift store find
here, an Amazon splurge there, and filling in the gaps with our trusty
library card. The reading list for this curriculum looks so delightful, I
can hardly stand the wait!
Album of Horses, by Marguerite Henry (MH), White Stallion of Lipizza by MH, History of the Horse by Hilary Berg, Draw 50 Horses by Lee J. Ames.
Bottom row, l to r:
King of the Wing by MH, Smithsonian Handbooks: Horses by Elwyn Hartley Edwards, Justin Morgan Had a Horse by MH, Misty of Chincoteague by MH, Brighty of the Canyon by MH.
Do you have a favorite horse book for children?
