McGuffey's Readers
This is Mott Media's republication of the original 1830s
version of McGuffey's Readers
The set contains the original
Christian content.
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. The
McGuffey's Readers are available separately or in one of two
sets below.
