Magnanimously homeschooling, worshiping, creating.......

Join us on a journey of faith, healing, learning to live with part of our hearts missing, and recovery, as our family rebuilds our lives, after our son's long battle with cancer....and his eventual rise on eagle's wings into Heaven...victory is his...he is serving the King!!!

I don't know about you, but we love reading over here. We especially love reading old books, rich in language and vocabulary. 

Here are some favorite oldies free on Amazon for the Kindle.


Are you a fan of G. A. Henty? He is an excellent writer of a large quantity of adventurous, usually historical fiction books. They are always entertaining, with stories of valiance and excellent character. Just the kind of book for instilling magnanimous character into our children's hearts.

Also, I found a lovely amount of Campfire Girls book series.


And The Rover Boys series.

Why MAGNANIMOUS?

Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary of the American Language defines Magnanimity as such:
MAGNANIM'ITY, n. [L. magnanimitas; magnus, great, and animus, mind.] Greatness of mind; that elevation or dignity of soul, which encounters danger and trouble with tranquillity and firmness, which raises the possessor above revenge, and makes him delight in acts of benevolence, which makes him disdain injustice and meanness, and prompts him to sacrifice personal ease, interest and safety for the accomplishment of useful and noble objects.
