To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical.

The Cornerstone Story Collection — Middle School, Volume 8
Four historical novellas in one volume, grouped by reading level.
A girl coaxes a banked fire back to life before the wayhouse wakes. A girl rakes the ash trench at the foot of a charcoal kiln, where one neglected morning can ruin a week's burn. A boy walks into a fog so thick the village loses its shape. And a boy stirs a dyer's vat that must stay warm but never boil.
Set in richly imagined historical villages inspired by nineteenth-century Northern Europe, each novella celebrates faithfulness, patience, and the quiet work nobody sees through engaging stories that families will enjoy reading again and again. These are quiet, thoughtful tales for middle-grade readers ready for longer stories and characters who carry real responsibility.
This volume includes four complete novellas:
- After the Missing Sheep
- Helping Without a Sound
- Last Watch
- Faithful Dog
Written for ages 11-14, these historical stories are ideal for readers in grades 6-8 and equally rewarding as family read-alouds — perfect for classical homeschool families seeking rich, character-forming historical fiction.
