Reading Resources We have put a tremendous amount of energy into making our website one of the best tools for helping you find great literature for readers of all ages, from the earliest readers to the deepest thinkers. The lists here help to give you…
Doorways to Great Reading First, may we start by giving you… Recommended Book Lists
We’ve created lists based on the above books, that show you which books we carry from each:

Prize-Winning Books Next, we’ve been focusing on the books that have won major prizes. For the Newbery medal, we have been rating and reviewing them. So far, we just have a list of the Caldecott winners and runners-up.

Classic Comparisons The Classic Comparisons pages are totally unique to Exodus. Each page introduces the text with an essay, offers fantastic (and free!) online teaching resources, and gives an overview of both children’s adaptations and the various translations we offer. You can even compare passages from each translation side-by-side! Aeneid of Virgil Beowulf Canterbury Tales Divine Comedy Don Quixote Epic of Gilgamesh Histories of Herodotus Iliad of Homer Milton's Paradise Lost Odyssey of Homer Pilgrim's Progress Sir Gawain and the Green Knight

Preschool &
Kindergarten
Read-Aloud Favorites Preschool & kindergarten are formative years, so you should be careful with the books and media you expose to your children. We try here to focus on books that are aesthetically good—beautiful art, well-written prose, solid worldview (but still fun for the kiddos). This page is a VERY SMALL sampling of some of our favorites. (You’ll find plenty more in the following list) Remember when you’re reading aloud to read slowly, articulate clearly, and express enthusiastically!
