Detailed insight & examples of following the Charlotte Mason philosophy of homeschooling. The book was short, to the point, & informative. I enjoyed reading her essay at the end of the book which details the history of homeschooling & statistical results when comparing homeschoolers to publicly educated children. Would recommend for those wanting more info or an overview of the Charlotte Mason methods without feeling over whelmed or bogged down.
