We are in our 2nd week of Beyond and LOVING IT! My girls cannot get enough of the Helen Keller read aloud. We are almost done with it! It probably helps that we are learning sign language also so they can relate some. I know there are some other suggestions that are listed in the back of the teachers guide, but I was wondering which other biography your girls enjoyed? Looks like we are going to get to read 2!
Thank you so much for your help! Have a blessed day!

We're reading that one now. We both LOVE it! Squanto was good for a quick read.

Another vote for Benjamin West. We may get two Biography reads done at our house too because we are just devouring Benjamin West.
I've done all the guides now with at least one child and still feeling the HOD LOVE. LOL!
