We're classical homeschoolers, and we just wrapped up Ancient Civilizations. Now, we've got a few resources for the Middle Ages, but, as I flip through them in preparation for the coming month, I realize just how vehemently anti-Catholic some of it is.

Can anyone recommend a few good resources for it? Also, my 7-yr-old girl reads at a fourth/fifth grade level and loves big, deep reads, so is there a good book for her to read?

I've some names of saints to research for a deeper Catholic look at the time, but would love if anyone has more recommendations.

This feels like a tricky time in history to teach ... Or it might be my own ignorance. I'm strong in the Ancient Civilizations and then Colonial America, but there's a lot of space in between.

Thanks!

I just noticed the other post about the Middle Ages but I was thinking that my question was more for stuff aimed at the littles.
