Salem Ridge Press was started by homeschooling graduate Daniel Mills who so enjoyed reading old, out of print books, that he desired to see them republished. He began Salem Ridge Press in November of 2005 with the goal of providing wholesome, moral, character-building books for children to read. The three books that we read definitely meet this goal.
As a parent, I want the minds of my kids to be filled with thoughts that are true, noble, right, pure and lovely. So it is a relief to me when I find a book that I can hand to my bookworm without concern of what she will pick up from it. I pre-read these books, of course, but I did not have to warn her, debrief her, or feel compelled to explain anything to her about the content of them.
Reasonably priced from $12 to $15 ( a couple were around $25), these books are great additions to any homeschool library. Many of the books can also be purchased as ebooks. And they are organized on the website not just by title, but by time period, genre, author and age as well.
As for Kaytie's opinion, she said that she really enjoyed the stories, she recommends them to any kid who likes to read, and she liked that "words they thought I might not know" were defined at the bottom of the page.

I received this product for free for the purpose of this review. All opinions expressed are my own and my daughter's and are honest and true.
