Reading List 8

Textbooks ARE NOT confirmed for the 2025 - 2026 academic year. Books are listed in the order they are assigned. Please purchase unabridged editions to experience the author's style of writing and vocabulary.

First three books are required for Progymnasmata B - 8th Grade:

Dante And His Journey
Oliver Twist (Sterling Unabridged Classics) or Men of Iron (Dover Children's Classics)
