Making Classic Living Books
Affordable and Available for All
Living Book Press is run by homeschoolers who couldn’t find the books we needed, so we decided to print them ourselves. We transcribe, format and proof each book meticulously by hand. We are happy to offer them for sale so that homeschoolers around the world now have easy access to classic living books that have gone out of print or were too expensive to obtain.

Family Read-Aloud of the Month
The Bastable Series
by Edith Nesbit
Meet the Bastables—six spirited siblings with a flair for adventure, a knack for getting into trouble, and hearts always in the right place. From digging for treasure in their backyard to forming a society of Wouldbegoods, their escapades are full of laughter, mishaps, and unexpected lessons.
In The Treasure Seekers, the Bastables launch their first mission to “restore the fallen fortunes of the house”—with hilarious results. The Wouldbegoods finds them attempting (and failing) to be model children, while The New Treasure Seekers brings even more cheerful chaos. Oswald Bastable and Others rounds out the series with short stories that shine a light on Oswald’s ever-hopeful schemes.
Told with warmth, wit, and a deep understanding of childhood, E. Nesbit’s classic series is perfect for reading aloud. These stories spark imagination, celebrate family bonds, and invite readers of all ages to find adventure in the everyday.
Rediscover the magic of make-believe and let the Bastables steal your heart.
