I just purchased a second copy of "24 Ways" to give a friend who got hold of my first one and was SO excited about it. My first copy is now with a third friend who wanted to spend more time with it after hearing all the talk and wanted to "try it on" with her family. I guess maybe I should keep a an extra copy for myself if we're ever actually going to get to use it. Ha! I have to admit I've never been disappointed with any purchase penned or recommended by the Clarkson's. The devotions get right to the core of what matters and offer a simple doable daily model to follow. The book covers and expands on the importance of authority, relationships, possessions, work, attitudes and choices. You will find out what God has to say about these by using His Word, get it "into your heart" through memorization, relate to one another through discussion and make it practical and long-lasting by becoming accountable and deciding how to put it in to practice. Another added bonus is that the coloring book is included in this version along with a few other forms which I was super excited about as I thought it had been discontinued. Also be sure to check out the new edition Educating The WholeHearted Child as it is amazing!

I love this book. I had it on a shelf for a few years while my kids grew up. WHen I called a friend to beg for help with character training she told me to get this book. The day I was going to order it, I found it on my shelf!

We have used it at the breakfast/lunch/dinner table regularly. THe kids seem to respond well to it. I love it. It is so easy to use, spells it all out, but so good! Not simplistic!! Love this book!!
