Renaissance History Literature for Children
I have been compiling lists of books we have used and will use in our study of the Renaissance. We are using Susan Wise Bauer's Story of the World Volume 2 (and eventually Volume 3) as our spine. ********************************************************* The first list includes just what we have read so far for SOTW Ch. 31-35 You can download this pdf file here : ********************************************************* We have also postponed our artist study of Van Gogh in order to spend two months studying the Renaissance artists (while still going forward in the SOTW book). So, this second list includes books we will use for this study. This file, also in pdf format, can be downloaded here :

Look what John caught in a trap!
We had a suspicion that some nocturnal creature was visiting us, so John set a trap (a harmless one). It was an opossum ! I was happy to see it, because we toted one off a couple of years ago thinking that they were "bad" to have around the house -- sort of like having a rat. I then learned how beneficial they are (they eat slugs for one). So, we released him in the backyard. I hope we didn't scare him away.
