Geography- The Middle East

As a supplement to our Classical Conversations studies, I decided to start a more in-depth World Geography study with N. Our first "stop" is the Middle East. This is not an organize unit study but more of a pulling of resources from different sources and reading them as we are able.

So far, this is what we have read:

The King and the Three Thieves (A Persian Tale)- Balouch
The Librarian of Basra (A True Story from Iraq- Winter
Silly Chicken (Pakistan)- Kahn
Tunjur! Tunjur!(A Palestinian Folktale)- (McDonald)
Lugalbanda, the Boy who Got Caught Up in a War (Ancient Iraq)- Henderson
