Books That Build Character: A Guide to Teaching Your Child Moral Values Through Stories by William KilpatrickMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is a great reference tool, especially for homeschoolers who are making their own curriculum. The trouble is picking from so many books. The books are listed with a review which indicates why they were chosen. The books are some of the best in children's literature. They are listed as to age and general subject in the main part of the book, but are listed with the author in the back of the book so you can print the list or make a checklist.
I have used some of the books for a literature assignment and other I've suggested for free reading. There are so many and they are so good the kids really love them.
Even if you aren't homeschooling, this book is invaluable for free reading. Most of the Newberry Award books are on the list as well as classics like "Narnia" which kids love. There are even books reviewed for the gifted and especially mature readers.
