GIANT HOMESCHOOL BOOK HAUL | Books for Our Homeschool
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 лип 2024
- It's time for another giant homeschool book haul! This homeschool curriculum book haul is filled with books that we'll use for our literature based homeschool, as well as additional reading material for our home. I'm especially excited about this homeschool haul because many of these homeschool books are ones I've had on my wishlist, and I made other fabulous book discoveries along the way. These books for our homeschool are from a combination of a Book Outlet haul and a secondhand and thrifted homeschool book haul. Rather than creating separate book hauls, I decided to include everything in one video for one huge homeschool book haul! I always enjoy seeing the homeschool resources that others are using, so I hope you enjoy seeing the homeschool books we've added to our bookshelves. I'll be sharing how many of the living books included in this haul will be fitting into our homeschool curriculum soon!
There were too many books included in this massive homeschool book haul to include in the description box (almost 100!), so I created an Amazon storefront where you can see all the books mentioned in this homeschool book haul. Should you purchase a book through my storefront link, as an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. I hope having the visual in the storefront is helpful, though, and thank you for supporting The Homeschool Convert!

Book nerd here! Loved this haul and I feel the same-- my favorite things to buy are books and that hunt gives me such satisfaction! I added a bunch to my various carts and lists while I watched.
Thank you! Love meeting fellow book nerds! 😁
It’s taken me an entire day to watch this because I keep pausing to add books to my list 😂
Haha!! Hope you discovered some good ones!!
I was jazzed to see this video pop up, great way to spend a Friday night after getting the kiddos into bed! Thanks Jess!
You’re so sweet! Sounds like most of my Friday nights. 🤣
I have a running list of classics and chapter books. The moffats has been on my list forever
The author of Hickory wrote my favorite book, The Silver Nutmeg. I read it so many times as a child and have since collected every book he wrote.
That’s so neat!
The Avi books are delightful! Our favorite is Ereth’s Birthday
We’re looking forward to reading them!
Love seeing the book hauls!😊
What great treasures you have found. Some real beauties!
Love, love, love all the books, too! ♥️ You've got some excellent choices there! Happy reading to your sweet family! Looking forward to seeing your new curriculum choices for the new year! Blessings! 😊
Thank you! ❤️
I checked UA-cam this evening and was so excited to see that you'd posted a book haul. I seriously love your book haul videos! I'm a sucker for books too and also love the "thrill of the hunt" when looking for books at thrift stores or sales. You're making me want to look closer at Book Outlet as I haven't bought much from them before. Thanks for the recommendations!
I love that I’m able to share my love of books and the thrill of the hunt with others here!! ♥️
I love books. My mom always tells me I can open my daugther her own library haha 😂
The my favorite section in a thrift store is the books. I love finding those treasures. I also love thriftbooks!! Such good recommendations in this video. Had to stop a few times to go add them to my wishlist.
I’ve found such treasures secondhand over the years!
I have been waiting for this video because my oh my do I love all the books you recommend! After I saw your comeback video I held back on any Amazon order just for this video❤️❤️❤️❤️ yes book outlets is overwhelming and sometime I don’t even know where to start
Aww, I’m so glad you enjoy these videos!! Let me know if there were any books you decided to add to your bookshelves!
It warms my heart to see others excited about books and thrilled with their finds!! From a fellow second hand book lover…
I love finding kindred book lovers here! ❤️
What an amazing book haul! You have picked so many good books.
Thank you!! 🥰
Walking with Miss. Millie sounds nice. Thank you for sharing.
I’m very excited to have learned about that one!
I always get good recommendations from your book videos! We have had Little Pear on our shelf for a few years now, looking forward to reading it😃 I just finished up The Lemonade War, ahead of my son. It was good😀 I have a feeling he is going to ask for the rest of the series. Added a few to my wish list. Thanks for your video!!
Thank you for watching! I love these types of videos, so I’m so glad that others enjoy them as well and that they are helpful!
A Song for a Whale was one of our favorites here!! Awesome book haul!
Thank you! I’m so excited to read that one!
I haven't watched yet, but I'm so excited to see this post.
🥰🥰
So many great finds! I love book Hauls! If you all like fantasy books, I would recommend checking out The Guilded Girl since your girls loved The Little Princess so much.
Thanks for the recommendation!
Loved all the books! If your family enjoys animal books, look into the Heartwood Hotel series! We’re reading the last one right now & have really enjoyed all of them. Each book is set in a different season so we read them during the corresponding season & it made it that much more fun!
I just recently bought the first book!
It’s one of our favorites too! Such sweet stories
So many great books! I love Book Outlet. I just placed a huge order too in addition to sourcing used books for next year. I never paid attention to their recommendations but will have to check it out. We loved FIAR but kind of fell by the wayside midway through the year so also plan to pick it up again next year and be more intentional about it.
Definitely look at the recommendations when you’re on a page for a book you’re interested in! I’ve been able to find so many great books that way. I’m really hopeful about being able to use FIAR more intentionally next year. We’re still wrapping up the current school year, but I’m so excited about next year’s choices!
Do I love books? I’m slightly addicted! I love the book recs you share.
I think my personal book addiction is clear. 😂
Toliver's Secret was my childhood entry point to historical fiction - great read! Ann Rinaldi is another great young adult author (upper middle and HS aged) for historical fiction. Love it!
Thank you for the recommendation!
Hahaha, I totally love the thrill of the hunt too 🤣
There are definitely worse guilty pleasures we could have. 😂
We love Song for a Whale. It was one of our favorites this year!
I can’t wait to read it!
@@TheHomeschoolConvert we did a whole literature based unit with it and it was a blast. The main character loves radios and, of course, there’s an ocean life component. Tech and aquatic biology are two of my son’s favorite things, so it seemed a natural fit.
I was so excited to see Song for a Whale I read it to my daughter (age 9) earlier this year and she loved it. We hope you guys will too.
I’m very much looking forward to reading it!
We read tollivers secrets with our history curriculum and my 2nd grader loved it after about chapter 3. Was good read!
That’s good to hear!!
Jess, I can't with you. Now I am in a book frenzy. I love book outlet
Haha!! Sorry! 🙈
Love your selections! I am pretty sure Ticket to Learning on UA-cam is where I found a unit study I am using this coming year for Song for a Whale.
I’d never heard of it before but am so excited about it!
I, too, was going to suggest a preread of "Catherine Called Birdie." Sonlight schedules it for higher grades, and I used it when my kids were teens.
Thanks! I looked in my personal notes, and I had it marked down for my teen. I may not have remembered that when I filmed though.
The Poppy series is my 6th graders favorite series! He brags about the sensory descriptions constantly!
Tolliver's Secret is great!
That Audobon book is amazing. You should check out A Nest For Celeste! Animal character, amazing drawings. It's told from a mouse point of view about Audobon. HIGHLY recommend it and it has a sequel.
The Illustrator book is awesome! I need to check that out.
I have two copies of that Aesop as well! Don't even ask how many Child's Garden Of Verses I have!😅 I love those by different illustrators.
George Mueller's story is awesome! It is so faith building.
Burgess Bird is really good. We are about a third of the way through.
Augustus Ceasar we are using now. My 6th grade son loves it.
Our Island Story is a favorite!!
You got tons of great books! We have very similar taste!😊❤ Thanks for sharing!!
Oh, I love reading these reviews about books we picked up! We definitely have similar taste. Now I’m even more excited to read all of these!
OMGOSH I have that book Hickory!! I got it when I was in 3rd grade (I'm 51 now) when my grandma got me a subscription to Weekly Reader. I can't get rid of any of those books!!!
I love long videos!!
I don't buy any new books unless it's from Ollie's...mostly Thrisft Books and Ebay.
Oh, that’s so neat!! I love that.
jess I have watched every video of yours from the beginning and i’m so glad you’re back! some of the books you were showing though were just flashed at the camera and we couldn’t see the cover! however, I did search on my library’s website for some of these books and have placed them on my wish list for next school year 🙂
Yes, it was more rushed than I typically like these videos to be. 😆 I realized that as I was editing, but I just didn’t have the time/bandwidth to do one of my more detailed videos. Even though some people like these big book dumps, I think I’ll feature fewer books next time so that I can spend more time like I usually do. Thanks for sticking with me from the beginning! It means so much!
yes you’re right I do enjoy when you do your flip throughs 🙂 however, I may or may not have been one of the people that voted on IG for a longer video 😬 lol
WishTree is technically my daughters first read aloud as I read it out loud when I was pregnant with her so she would hear my voice before I went to sleep and she woke up to party 😆
That’s so sweet!
Can you make a video for read out loud book recommendations for kindergarten. I’ll start homeschooling this September for my 4 year old daughter.
The Five Sistets sounds good! I pick up better copies of books I own when thrifting ss well.
Glad to know I’m not the only one!
Based on your books, I'm really wondering if we're using the same morning time curriculum next year. My oldest will be in 3rd grade, too. I just love watching your videos bc I feel like we would get along so well!
Aww, thank you! I bet we would! ♥️ Spoiler alert: we’re using a morning time curriculum from Brighter Day Press.
Same! I think I got it in a bundle awhile back, and I love how it covers all the topics I want and makes it so easy.
Wow! Loving the book haul videos! How do you find used homeschool sales?
Thank you! I find out about homeschool book/curriculum sales from Facebook groups I’m in for local homeschoolers.
I always try to read the first book of a series as a read aloud so if any of my kids really like it they can go on to read the next book themselves. It has really inspired my daughter to pick up books she may not have tried on her own. You have an awesome collection and I took a lot of notes. Is it me or does our read aloud list keep growing no matter how many we read?
It’s endlessly growing!! 😂 I love that idea about reading the first book in the series and letting kids decide if they want to read others independently.
How did your niece like the screw tape letters ?? I just got that book last night in a CS Lewis box set.
She hasn’t read it yet. So many books, so little time, haha! It’s on her list though.
Hi Jess! Would you mind writing down all of the titles to the books so I can more easily look them up and do price comparisons?
If you go to the link in my description box, you can scroll and see all the books.
What morning time layout are you using?
It’s by Brighter Day Press.
Do you use heart of Dakota? If you don't, you should check it out!
A lot of these books are found in that curriculum. We love it so much! Learning through beautiful literature.
Ps- I would recommend reading Mary popping ahead of time
Tollivers secret is wonderful
I used Heart of Dakota (with some adjustments) for my ninth grader this year!
@@TheHomeschoolConvert Wonderful! We used it for grade 6 with adjustments. I am too eclectic to use something all in. I will have to search to see if you did a review video on it :)
