Reading with my grandchildren

I'm researching books to read with my grandchildren.  I did this four years ago and published a list of 100 books: A List of Recommended Children's Books. My 2015 approach was to compile and compare 'Best of' lists and 'Award winning' lists. The books are ranked based on their inclusion in other lists.  This was my data geek's solution : )

My grandchildren are older and hopefully I'm a little wiser.  I'm using the classical education model as the context for my 2019 list.  Here are my two sources:

• Paideia Program: An Educational Syllabus by Mortimer J. Adler (1984, MacMillan Publishing Company)
• The Well-Educated Mind: A Guide to the Classical Education You Never Had by Susan Wise Bauer (2015, W. W. Norton & Company)

As a first step, I've put the recommended readings from the Paideia Program into a spreadsheet. Since the book was published in 1984, some of the titles are no longer available. So my first step is to determine accessibility. I also took the list from the Well Educated Mind and compared the authors and titles to the Paideia Program lists.  Here is my list in progress:

Paideia Program Recommended Reading

Please note that spreadsheet has four (4)
pages:

1. 5 to 9
2. 10 to 14
3. 15 to 18
4. WellEducated

In addition to standing on the shoulders of Mortimer and Susan, I'll also be standing on the shoulders of another obsessive who places high value on reading aloud:

• The Read Aloud Handbook by Jim Trelease (2013, Penguin Books)
