Teach creatively and inspire students by closing the door on textbooks. We believe in a more flexible way of learning. Our collection of over 1,000 paperback titles transforms the learning - and teaching - experience. With themes covering major curriculum topics in history, science, social studies, and language arts and spanning multiple grades, these titles are perfect for all levels of learners. Enhance literacy skills through content reading. "Real-life" reading is often absent from prepackaged curricula. Our nonfiction titles are edited with care in order to give readers of all levels practice with reading for information skills while keeping their interest. In fact, testing companies excerpt our materials for use on state tests around the country! Get more for your money with our prepackaged sets and volume discounts.

"Cobblestone publishes wonderful magazines for young adults. We use Cobblestone, Calliope, and Faces when writing and demonstrating lessons in US History and World History. We use Appleseed magazine to encourage our elementary teachers to bring non-fiction and interdisciplinary topics into their classrooms. The monthly online teacher""'s guides provide a wealth of support. As a teacher and now as a teacher-educator, I often use the magazines to jump start a lesson. My students love these magazines...they eagerly wait for new issues and use them...for their school work or just to read on their own." - Marcie Taylor-Thoma, Ph.D Coordinator of Social Studies, Maryland State Department of Education Read other endorsements.
