CalicoKat Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Is there something else like this out there but with more up-to-date available books? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caitilin Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I don't know what your religious views are, but you might like to take a look at Catholic Mosaic. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cindyz Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Peak with Books is similar. You didn't say what age you are looking for, but I have one for sale on the FS board. http://www.welltrainedmind.com/forums/showthread.php?t=185021&highlight=peak+books Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aubrey Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 There are some sites that have free studies based on a variety of books. I printed some (don't remember the sites off-hand) & then...realized I'm not really a FIAR kinda gal. The lady in the bookstore took advantage of the pg hormones when she described the couch-cuddling & reading. I don't know about y'all, but here, that means face-sitting & page-flipping. For...oh, I'm guessing 6hrs. Because so far, I haven't found their book-limit. I mean, if I'm holding it, letting them turn the pages, & sit on my face. By themselves, it's 5-10 min most days. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann@thebeach Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 (edited) As mentioned-Peak with Books is very much like FIAR but with more current books. Story Stretchers is another one and there is an edition for toddler/preschool and one for elementary age. I have this and like it since it uses current books we already have. http://www.amazon.com/Story-S-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-r-s-Activities-Childrens-Favorite/dp/0876591195/ref=pd_sim_b_27 Looks like there's a few new editions out now too. Here's another one that I have but I'm afraid I haven't used it yet: http://www.amazon.com/Using-Caldecotts-Across-Curriculum-Novelli/dp/0590110330/ref=pd_sim_b_6 The Classics at Home by Ann Ward is also similar and uses the Beatrix Potter books: http://www.amazon.com/Classics-at-Home-Ann-Ward/dp/1568570341/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1276578904&sr=1-1 Edited June 15, 2010 by Ann in IA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
