I happened upon a blog called Callapidder Days and decided to join the Spring Thing Reading 2010 reading list.  You can click above to read the full details.  I finally decided upon what books I want to include in my list and here it is:

            4.  A Firm Foundation by Dr. David H. Peterson

                        3.  Emma by Jane Austen
                        4.  The Boxcar Children Book 1 by Gertrude Chandler Warner

I didn't finish 4 of those books.  I am replacing them with these:
A Summer's Secret by Kathleen Fuller
Organic Gardener's Composting by Steve Solomon
Jahanara, Princess of Princesses by Kathryn Lasky
A Princess Found by Sarah Culberson and Tracy Trivas




A lot of condensed versions on my list right now.  Oh well.  I still want to read them.  I am sure that there will be a few on my list for 2010 that is not on this list.  But that is because I read books at random from the library, read for home school both for myself to teach and learn and to read to the kids.  I am currently keeping a list of books that I have read in 2010 along with the dates that I read them.  I have been keeping a list for 3 years now and I keep refining my list better each year.  I will be adding that to my blog here shortly.
