I was thinking I would use Ten Dates Every Catholic Should Know as the spine for my rising 7th grader's history next school year.
Anyone else ever done something like this? I was going to sit down and work through it and look for some living books to go along with each chapter for him. But I thought I'd see if anyone here has ever done such a thing too?!
Any ideas?

Kacky, chiming in to offer my thanks to you for mentioning the book as well! It has been woefully neglected on our bookshelves, waiting to find its place in our studies. Thanks to your timely post it will fill in the gaps quite nicely for a Church history timeline project we're embarking upon!
Hope your 7th grader truly enjoys learning the importance of 10 dates this particular Catholic didn't know before getting the book!

We did this some time ago. I had the kids make a divider for their binders for each of the dates...illustrated it with appropriate symbols and each a different color, that kind of thing. Other books and resources were placed behind those for the year. Worked out well!
