What about listening to audiobooks?I’ve just downloaded one for free, but I’m unfamiliar with the author.Thanks,Christie November 14, 2010 at 8:51 pm csmammaParticipantHi Christie,We started Henty books around 12, though I know many start younger. Jim Weiss has several of them on audio which are superb!Blessings ~ Heather November 14, 2010 at 10:53 pm havefaithpleaseMemberMy boys listened to The Cat of Bubastes last year for the first time. They were 7 & 8 at the time. They love the story. Since have listened to it many many times over.

Henty:http://www.amazon.com/Guide-Historical-Adventures-Vocabulary-Warrior/dp/1929241151I understand that many start reading them between 10 and 14 depending upon their abilities.RachelViewing 4 posts - 1 through 4 (of 4 total)The topic ‘G.A.
