Classic Books with a Schoolhouse Theme
Are you looking for children's books or series related to one-room country schools?
Anyone who has attended all 20 CSAA annual conferences can attest that the resources we collect are exactly what we need to improve our programming or expand our resources on country schools.
It escapes this writer which conference supplied the following reprint, but author Gwenyth Swain, penned an article called "Revisiting the One-Room School," suggesting a number of classics books on one-room schools well suited to young readers.

It was printed in the ALA magazine called Book Links in 2005, but still very helpful today.

    The story of what went on inside that eminently successful country school is an important part of Americana. It should be preserved along with a few remaining buildings wherein the great cultural pageant took place."
