📦 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.

Give your teen a full year of rich, morally substantive literature with the complete Cornerstone Academics Grade 9 Literature Curriculum.
Designed for classical education, this comprehensive program combines original historical fiction, poetry, narration, Socratic discussion, vocabulary, advanced literary analysis, and time-tested classical practices into a complete literature course for high school students. Through carefully crafted stories and guided study, students develop the habits of close reading, sustained attention, moral reasoning, and serious literary engagement.
The Grade 9 curriculum follows a Charlotte Mason–inspired rhythm of reading, narration, discussion, copywork, and memory work, paired with the deeper analytical demands appropriate for high school: Socratic discussion questions, an expanded literary analysis vocabulary (including diction, allusion, narrative lens, narrative distance, and narrative restraint), and optional analytical writing prompts. Stories at this level move into territory of isolation, inheritance, and professional duty — moral questions that require sustained, careful thought.
Most families spend 30–45 minutes per day, four days per week. No additional books or materials are required — everything is included.
