📦 Shipping Notice for Print Books

To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.

The Cornerstone Story Collection — Middle School, Volume 2

Four historical novellas in one volume, grouped by reading level.

A loaf burns on a bright morning, filling a kitchen with the smell of good work gone bad. A goat that refuses to be led tests a boy's temper and his patience. A boy whose hands are too big for the rest of him untangles more than a fishing line. And a grandmother inspects every jar, every morning, without fail.

Set in richly imagined historical villages inspired by nineteenth-century Northern Europe, each novella celebrates patience, integrity, and generosity 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:

  • Burnt Bread
  • Stubborn Goat
  • Tangled Line
  • The Unwelcome Task

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.
