2022 Digital December Bundle

Description

For December only, enjoy over 95% off this beautifully curated bundle featuring all 157 ebooks released from 2017–2022 that the rights allow me to include. It’s the easiest (and most affordable!) way to build a rich digital library your family can return to for years.

A Few Treasures You’ll Find Inside:

This bundle is packed with genuine treasures your family will return to again and again. You’ll get the complete Charlotte Mason Home Education Series, the refreshed Handbook of Nature Study volumes with new full-colour images, and the well-loved Among the… People, Eyes and No Eyes, and Burgess books—all updated with all-new color photographs that bring each story to life.

Alongside these favourites are beautifully restored classics across literature, history, geography, science, poetry, and nature study. It’s a warm, carefully curated digital library designed to inspire curiosity, support learning, and fill your home with rich living books—at a fraction of their value.

Every title is included as a PDF, and 57 books are also available in EPUB format—complete with clean, consistent metadata so they slide seamlessly into your ebook organiser or reading app. Plus, another 74 EPUBs are underway and will arrive in your account during our free December update.

Organised for Simplicity

Each year’s collection uses the same folder layout, so your entire library—from early releases to the newest additions—slots together neatly. Extract all years into one place and your collection instantly arranges itself by category. No fuss, no confusion—just books ready to enjoy.

Don’t Miss Your Free Annual Update

To make sure you receive the newest files, please create an account at checkout. Each December, an update file will appear automatically in your downloads with all new or refreshed ebooks.
