5.0 out of 5 stars Very encouraging and honest, December 6, 1999

By	Cathy M. Fay (Virginia) - See all my reviews

The Homeschool Journey is very encouraging to those of us considering teaching out of the home. The honesty in sharing the family stories shows us that the "teacher" need not be perfect, just willing to listen, learn and adapt to their children's learning needs. This book offers a variety of resources from mentoring and community involvement to individual books and curriculum, all the while stressing the need to tailor the teaching to each individual child. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is thinking about homeschooling their children...it's given me courage.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book really addresses the heart of homeschooling., August 1, 1998

By A Customer

As a homeschooling rookie, I found this book to be very enouraging and truly inspirational! It was just the window I needed to see how simple and wonderful homeschooling can be for the whole family. Susan Card beautifully explains how homeschooling works in the Card family. I highly recommend it to anyone who currently homeschools or is considering it as a schooling option.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gripping stuff, May 3, 1998

By	"thabu" (White River, Mpumalanga South Africa) - See all my reviews

My husband bought me this book and I started reading out of curiosity only - not even remotely considering homeschooling. But after only a few pages I couldn't put it down. Now I am researching this possibility, because of her sincere and straight forward approach and because I agree with their goals of what they want to achieve with their children through homeschooling. Mindchanging for me!
