Bigger ext. books for DITHOR?

Okay, I think I might have asked this before, but... Can one use the Bigger ext. books for some of the DITHOR exercises? They might not have all the genres but don't they cover some? Can you get "more bang for your buck" so to speak by using them for DITHOR as well?

Thanks,
Shannon

Shannon,

I think it's important to choose different books for DITHR from those utilized in the Extension Pack, because they are intended for different purposes. The Extension Pack Schedule is written to correspond with the history study, so the number of days allotted and the pacing won't match up with DITHR well. The readings for the Extension Pack are also not representative of the genres in DITHR, so you'd need other books anyway to cover all the genres. It's of course up to you to do whatever you feel is best! :D

Blessings,
Carrie
