Before I just skip it, I thought I’d ask if anyone had a nice alternative to “The Shipwrecked Sailor”(Module 1 resource). It’s out of print, hard to find and too pricey to purchase. And no, libraries aren’t an option where I am (the only disadvantage to rural life).
I did…they have it for around $15 with shipping. That was just a little high for a used, 40-page children’s book.
I’ve gotten 80% of my books on http://www.paperbackswap.com. It’s hard for me to fork out money for books when I can just grab something off my shelf I don’t use and swap for it.
Tonni, I’d say skip it. It was an interesting little story from Egyptian folklore that I found at our library. But if you can’t find it easily and inexpensively, don’t worry about it. 🙂
I’ll just read Croco’Nile AGAIN :D! They carry this one around with them everywhere…it was a BIG hit. I’m pretty sure they have it memorized and one has started trying to recreate the drawings. Really delightful little poem/story.
All of our favorite, though, was definitely “Boy of the Pyramids”. Delightful!
Thanks for these guides & book suggestions. Stressfree planning for me and we have ALL enjoyed and learned so much together.
