The Christian Liberty Nature Readers series published by Christian Liberty Press provides a living-book way of exploring nature. Now you can add these popular living books to your homeschool bookshelf — free!
We really enjoyed many of the titles published by Christian Liberty Press. Their books are sound and affordable. If you are looking for a printed version of one of these titles, we highly recommend them! (Newer versions are available.)
The complete nature series runs from K-5. Whereas the later books in the series have been revised and edited, Books 1 and 2 are simply reprints of books now in the public domain.
