5.0 out of 5 stars Now I can RELAX!, December 9, 2000

By	Big Mamma (Wichita, Kansas) - See all my reviews

This book has slowed me down long enough to take a good long look at the "why's" and "what's" of our home schooling experience. Mary reminds us to look at the larger picture when it comes to educating our children; to focus on the things that are most important and to pay attention to the "bent" our children are already conformed to. An immeasurable blessing to be encouraged to enjoy my role as "mother" as much as my role as "teacher." Thanks, Mary!

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favorite Homeschooling Book, April 12, 2008

By	Agnes M. Penny "apenny" (Whitehall, PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is my favorite homeschooling book. It shows that anyone can homeschool, and that a homeschool does not need to -- and should not-- look like a conventional classroom. Written from a Christian perspective, this book will help the reader to relax and enjoy homeschooling and will help mothers make their homeschool meet their children's individual needs. Very practical as well as inspirational, this is my number one recommendation for people considering homeschooling!
