Perfect for children ages 8 – 14, this 8-lesson unit invites us to learn from one of the most beloved classic children’s authors of all time.

• Discover why her stories have stood the test of time, from lifelike woodland creatures, charming detail, and gentle lessons that unfold softly within each adventure.
