I have so many read aloud chapter books that are my favourite that it was very hard to narrow down the list to 6! This list is in no way our
only favourites but they are some we have enjoyed recently and some are ones that spring to mind when thinking of read alouds I read to my oldest two years ago. I would love to know what are your favourite read alouds.
Little Britches Series
Author Ralph Moody.
The Ralph Moody
Collection has been one of the most amazing journey's we have
undertaken as a family. My older two roses would sit waiting at the
window for daddy to come home and when he arrived would race out to the
car begging "Daddy
PLEASE read to us!"
Carry on, Mr. Bowditch
Author Jean Lee Latham
This is one of those sit on the edge of your seat historical novels. It is excellently written. Interestingly enough when we looked up Nathaniel Bowditch in our encyclopedia set it recommend this book as the number one resource on his life. It was also awarded the John Newberry Medal.
Handel: At the Court of Kings
Series
Great Musician Series Book Collection
This is the first chapter book on great musicians that we've ever read and we really enjoyed every minute of our music study. There are a total of 16 musicians covered in this series.
Follow My Leader
Author James B. Garfield
It's a story revealing the consequences of our
actions at the same time giving us a hope for the future. We
walk with Jimmy as he learns to forgive and go with him on a
journey as to what it would be like to be blind.
The Phantom Tollbooth
Author Norton Juster
This book is amazing ! If you love reading then this is a must for your
shelf. It is so much fun. I enjoyed the play on words and the literal
use of words. It is so very cleverly written. Every page is a play on words and the linguistic talent of the author is so very enjoyable.
Little Lord Fauntleroy
Author Frances Hodgson Burnett
For beautiful language and character rich books I highly recommend the books by Frances Hodgson Burnett. When I asked him which book was his favorite read aloud so far he named this book. The story of a young man destined for great things. Born into poverty yet a prince. An excellent read aloud for the whole family.
