​In order to maintain your student’s language arts skills, these free book studies can be used to supplement your curriculum or during the summer or other break times. Some of these titles are out of print, but can be found in the library or through used book services such as Amazon.com.  Presented as unit studies, each book study has a summary of the book and a list of suggested activities from which to choose that make the book come alive.
