Ok, I know this exists but cannot seem to find exactly what I want...
A chronological booklist for good history books, picture books/read alouds especially online (all ages would be great, but more importantly, something for the younger set).
Whose got one?

Actually, I don't know if exactly what you are looking for does exist. I have usually seen lists that are one or the other. These past threads include suggestions for some often recommended sites/lists - most often sited is Reading Your Way Through History.
List of history books
Living history books for grades 1-5?
American history reading list
I am embarrassed to say that I have been working on a picture book list like this for several years - one that is as comprehensive as possible, but one I haven't posted. I have hinted and promised some folks I would publish it here soon and still never have. Because I can't get a format I really like, and there are gaps in the time periods (not much in many early centuries), and I know I am missing good books, and I don't have them organized by date in some sublists, and how do we protect it from being lifted without credit to 4 Real, and....excuses, excuses...
So I guess I am going public and saying I will post it but need to write an intro and disclaimer for it before doing so. So nag me if you don't see it by the weekend, because I really need to do it. I have posted a portion here - 20th century.

I refer often to the booklist on Simply Charlotte Mason.

I go to Emmanuel Books, , where I can search by historical period and grade level. Their selection tends to cover what's on many other lists, and I can easily pull up titles appropriate to my child's age and ability.
