This is just what I needed! Great list of books and a great schedule/plan- I love how intentional and thought out this is to, to introduce “higher” levels of reading to even younger kiddos. I have experienced this myself as we participate in classical conversations in the US and my 3 kids are 9th grade, 6th grade, and 3rd grade but I have read aloud many of my eldest suggested reading books to the joy of all! I love the idea of reading even Tozer and Spurgeon aloud to younger kids as well. Thanks!
