Lamplighter books are some of our favorites for our children, and our family. We love to read them out loud as a family. Every one that we have read so far has captured our hearts. We love that they are not only sweet stories with good morals and values, but most also point to Christ. We give these beautiful books to our children as Christmas gifts.

We've been reading Lamplighters for many years and have lots of favorites (Ishmael/Self-Raised were amazing but those are for more mature readers). But lately we've been listening to Lamplighter Theaters during mealtime--wow!!! Such great discussion material about the sovereignty of God, gratefulness, and various character traits the heroes display. We also loved Mark Hamby's Life Transforming Seminars--what an interesting life story he has. And his son's piano music-great stuff! Have enjoyed so many of their resources but have NOT read Me and Nobles :)

ReplyDeleteI've never heard of Lamplighters for starters,
ReplyDeleteIt sounds awesome, though. With my kids getting bigger, I've been looking for ways to include reading that's not just a typical toddler book. Something that will have an impact and can encourage discussion on our family values. These stories seem perfect.
The website looks like it has a lot of different options for our growing family. I'm excited to find out more!

ReplyDeleteAnd, i don't know if this counts, but I follow the blog through my e-mail. lol...
I did not know about Lamplighter until now. We are a family of 6 and began homeschooling this year. I am always looking for good books to read to my children. One book that caught my attention was The Three Weavers. I would love to read it to my girls. I also noticed that it was 1/2 price in the damaged section, which makes it affordable for us. I also followed through e-mail.
ReplyDeleteI frequent Lamplighters website to window shop. They all look like wonderful books. I found a couple books of theirs at goodwill!!! The Lamplighter is really good! Thank you for the opportunity!

ReplyDeleteWe really enjoyed Teddy's Buttons.
ReplyDeleteVisited Lamplighter website. The Christmas special looks very interesting!
ReplyDeleteWe would love to begin a collection of these books!
ReplyDeleteThe White Gypsy is my favorite, although Charlie's Choice is a close second. I've never read a Lamplighter I don't like... ;)
