The best way to describe these wonderful books is “literature and Bible study rolled into one.” Truly from a Christian perspective, these classic and award-winning books are examined in the light of God’s Word and a Biblical worldview. The author sent us several review copies and they are wonderful!

Each guide includes:

• a concise synopsis of the book
• information about the book’s author
• background information pertinent to the story
• suggestions for activities relating to the subject matter
• introduction of literary terms
• vocabulary exercises for each section of reading
• comprehension, analysis, and application questions for each section of reading with discussion of related Biblical themes
• a complete answer key and suggestions for further reading

Their brochure states “Our goal is to teach students of all ages to examine what they read, Christian or secular, classic or contemporary, and value the truth it contains as measured against the Bible.” A worthy goal indeed! If you want to study great literature from a Christian perspective, here’s your answer! If in doubt, try just one - we’re sure you’ll be back for more!

Progeny Press guides are available in two formats: softcover staplebound booklets and CD-ROMs. The CD-ROMs originally featured printable .pdf files, but Progeny Press is now transitioning these to interactive .pdf files. Inspired by a tax software, these files are able to be used by the student on the computer, or printed out. Questions in the files have text boxes to type in or buttons to select, so you won’t have to print worksheet pages if you don’t want to. Plus, users can grade their answers and leave notes as well! The publisher is starting with the high school and middle school titles, with upper elementary titles transitioning in early 2010. Lower elementary titles will remain the same, printable but not interactive. All books to accompany study guides are available from us for your convenience.
