McGuffey's Readers
While there are several "reprinted" versions
of the McGuffey Readers, this version from Mott Media is a
republication of the 1830s version. It contains the original
Christian content. The McGuffey's Readers are available
separately or in one of two sets below. Approximate grade levels
are listed for each of the books; however, since reading is best
taught individually, how the child progresses through the series
will depend on the reading skills of the student. |
