Here’s what my blog readers have bought on Amazon.com in the past year… partly based on my recommendations, and partly on their own, but I was credited because they got there through my links.
Keep on clicking those book links. Even if you don’t want the specific product I’ve linked to, if you buy within a certain (short) period of time, I get a tiny credit for that transaction anyway.
Here’s what folks have flocked from this site to buy on Amazon:
Two ancient history books I thought were slightly strange, but I guess others like them a lot:
More ancient history:
- They Lived Like This in Ancient Mesopotamia

Step into Reading history books:
- Thomas Jefferson's Feast (Step into Reading) (Step #4)
- Christopher Columbus (Step-Into-Reading, Step 3)

Homeschool math books & supplies:
- Cuisenaire Rods Intro. Set Wood (yes – recommended by me even if you buy no other math “toys”!)

Baking & food books, probably referred by my baking blog:
- Bread: A Baker's Book of Techniques and Recipes (not for beginners, but an excellent resource!)
- Brittles, Barks, and Bonbons
- Cake Pops (a silly book I haven’t read, but some people like that sort of thing, I suppose…)
General parenting books:
Other homeschool books and supplies:
- Home Learning Year by Year: How to Design a Homeschool Curriculum from Preschool Through High School (haven’t read this, but it looks interesting)

- The Myth of Ability: Nurturing Mathematical Talent in Every Child (ditto!)
- What Your First Grader Needs to Know: Fundamentals of a Good First-Grade Education (Core Knowledge Series) (perhaps useful if you’re on your own and not sure you’re covering all the basis – ditto for the next one)

- Expanding PEG Rack 10 Hooks Hardwood Multi-purpose Vertical or Horizontal Wall Mount
- Good Calories, Bad Calories: Fats, Carbs, and the Controversial Science of Diet and Health (Vintage) (hmm… if you’re reading diet books, read my father-in-law’s instead!)
- Sesame Street - Sing Along
- Spring Full Scale AK-47 Tactical Flashlight, Forgrip 240-FPS Airsoft Gun (I’m assuming this isn’t a REAL gun…)
- Freedom: A Novel
- The Burning Sky (Halcyon #1: A Steampunk Thriller)
- Pirate Stash (a kindle game – free!)
Again, keep clicking those links! This blog hasn’t made me a cent so far, but maybe 5772 is the year we can turn that around… :-)))
