P3/4 Read-Aloud Books

Fiction, Fairy Tales, and Fun for Little Learners

NEW! Embark on an exciting journey of discovery with your little learners!

Celebrate learning every day... Sonlight's Core P3/4 is an informal learning program made up of "best-ever" children's classics specifically selected to launch your toddlers (3 to 4 years of age) on thrilling daily journeys of wonder and discovery.

Fuel their imaginations...

Gather the kids, crack open a specially selected book and set sail for places far and wide. Ignite the imaginations of your toddlers and whet their appetites for the years of discovery to come.

With your children by your side you will:

  • Learn a timely lesson in diligence through an adventure-filled search for a bee tree.
  • Empathize with Alexander as his day goes all wrong.
  • Laugh as you relate to the hilarious antics of Amelia Bedelia.
  • Relax in the natural beauty and contentment of family during a morning spent in Maine.
  • Grow in recognition of cadence and rhyme as well as the value of perseverance with an elephant who tries to hatch an egg.
  • Exclaim in wonder and praise to see God move a tree in response to a missionary's prayer.
  • Captivate your children with excellent story-telling while you cultivate a love for learning.
  • Develop closer family bonds through intimate time spent together with your toddlers.
  • And so very much more...

Build a legacy library...

Core P3/4 is a comprehensive collection of timeless classics that will serve your family for years! You and your tiny tots will read many of these stories over and over again. One day, they will likely read these favorites to their younger brothers and sisters. When possible we selected quality-bound hardcover additions for the collection, so you'll know that these books will last for years and years.
