February Homeschool Book List
In this edition of our monthly homeschool book list, you’ll find three categories of books to enjoy throughout February: educational books, picture books, and chapter books. There will be a variety of books that are suitable for any child. Whether you have preschool-aged children or middle schoolers, a well-made book can bring joy. Some of these books fit the holidays and seasons of the month, and some are purely just for fun!
I’ve also created a free printable reading packet to pair with your February reading journey. Inside it, you will find a printable version of this reading list, a reflection page (that you can print more than once for each book you read), and a reading log to track any other book you’ve read and enjoyed throughout the month of February.
P.S. All families welcome! I’m a homeschool mom, so I discuss homeschooling by default. But no matter your schooling choice – these books are for you!

Homeschool Book Lists
The purpose of these Homeschool Book lists is to help you and your homeschool children discover new and exciting books. The library and stores are overflowing with books; it can be hard to know where to begin. Each month, I’ll be sharing my suggestions to help you and your homeschool kids grow in your love for reading!
My love and appreciation for books continues to grow since homeschooling. I even get excited to pick up our next picture book. When choosing a book, age should not be a limitation. A good book is a good book across all generations. Books are the core of learning in our home. Whether that be fantastical stories, funny rhymes, suspenseful mysteries, or anything in between. Books spark a child’s imagination, improve their vocabulary, and expand their understanding of the world around them.

Educational Books
Don’t let the word “educational” fool you. This category still contains engaging, picture-filled stories to help your little ones learn new concepts.
In each monthly homeschool book list, I like to include 6 books that are geared towards teaching a new concept (math, English, history, famous people, science, etc.). These books can be a great way to help your children learn in a fun, engaging way.
You Can’t Buy a Dinosaur with a Dime by Harriet Ziefert
Money Math by David A. Adler
What Do Authors Do? by Eileen Christelow
Woodrow for President by Peter W. Barnes
Why America Matters by Ben Carson
Saint Valentine the Kindhearted by Ned Bustard
Picture Books
Picture books are the core of these homeschool book lists I plan to put together each month. That’s because homeschooling and learning go far beyond core subjects. A good picture book feeds the imagination, teaches life lessons, and expands a child’s understanding of the world around them. Or sometimes they’re just ridiculously silly and make us laugh, and that’s ok too!

Chapter Books
My kids both love going through chapter books. Since they’re still young (7 and 4), we tend to choose books with easy-to-follow storylines and some good pictures throughout. Here are just a few chapter books we’ve been loving lately, and I hope you do too.
As you might be able to tell from the following suggestions, my kids have very different tastes in books. At the end of the day, reading should be fun! A literature-heavy education combines a variety of books. Sometimes, that’s deep, morally rich books that I’ve presented. And sometimes that’s purely silly books chosen by my kids for entertainment (hello, Balloon Goons)! A love for reading grows from all that and more.
