It can be very confusing looking at all the curriculum available to home schoolers these days. This book is a wonderful resource to help you sort it all out. Mary Pride's wonderful down-to-earth reviews can save you so much time and frustration.

I have not yet begun homeschooling. I picked up this book so that I could answer my husbands questions about how other people handle homeschooling in high school with transcripts, college entrance requirements etc.

I have to say that I found this book to be one of the most useful books I have ever read about homeschooling. I would suggest that if you are considering homeschooling that you look at all of Mary Pride's books.

I have a love-hate relationship with this text. I love the amount of information she shares about curriculum. It could be a valuable guide for many homeschoolers. I hate the parts when she shares her ultra conservative, anti-feminist,right-wing, "I am a Christian so the World is Christian" view that she intersperses throughout the book. Its fine if she is preaching to the choir, a Christian choir. I am not a member of that group now do I wish to be. I find many of her slanted views offensive. If you like Rush Limbaugh, you will like her book. Need I say more?
