My husband read all of the books below to our children, save for the last one. I read that one for our First Communicant in the spring.
The Small War of Sergeant Donkey
by Mary DalyBig John's Secret (Living History Library)
by Eleanore M. JewettThe Lost Baron
by Allen FrenchBlood Red Crescent
Henry GarnettThe King of the Golden City by Mother Mary Loyola
We're in the middle of Seargeant Donkey right now, it's a lighter WWII book which is nice :) What age range does it say for Lost Baron, I'd maybe like for Matthias to read on his own??? Thanks sweetie!! Happy Feast tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThe book appealed to my children, ages 8 to 11 (at the time). The 8-year-old read some of it to himself, but I think that it would be better suited for a ten-year-old to read on his own (this is also Bethlehem Books' recommendation). The book is definitely heavier than The Small War of Sergeant Donkey.
