Great Literature at Your Fingertips…

This tip is for those, like myself, who are on a limited budget but know the
importance of providing great literature for their children to read.

I would love to be able to buy a beautifully bound, last-a-lifetime volume of
every “great classic” for my children, but I can’t afford to do that. So to
supplement the ones I can afford to buy I use online books or etexts. A good
place to start is Ambleside Online at http://www.amblesideonline.org . They
have a listing of suggested literature readings for each grade level with links
to an online version of most of the children’s classic books. You can read them
online or you can download them to read at your convenience or you can print
them out to read away from the computer. It is a great way to have access to
affordable great literature! At most the costs are paper, ink, and time.
Ambleside also has a great article on printing etexts here:

I hope this is helpful to anyone who wants to provide the classics for their
children but can’t afford to buy them all.

Happy Homeschooling!
