Children's books

Children's Books are always discounted at Schoolhouse Publishing!

If I could encourage you in one area when homeschooling little ones, this is what I would say to you:  Read to them a lot!  Cuddle up with them in a favorite spot and read to them, with them, and for them.  Learn to read expressively (practice this skill - let the hidden actress out).  Teach your kids to love reading.  This one thing alone could revolutionize your homeschool and your child's love of learning for the rest of his life.  This section of our website is full of fun children's books - many of them award-winning classics.  Build your homeschool library with great kids' books, give them as gifts, and read them again and again with your kids (and someday, your grandkids).  You'll never regret it!
