That being said, it is fairly short. You may be able to ask around other local homeschoolers and borrow a copy.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00566356380690888973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504438272766227101.post-12172741511196853052023-01-18T22:25:05.164-05:002023-01-18T22:25:05.164-05:00I am on a super long waiting list at my library fo...I am on a super long waiting list at my library for Teaching from Rest. Is it better just to buy? It's been several months' wait! I read Wild and Free last year and really enjoyed it. I am at the opposite place from you - my little one is 3 so not yet formally schooling him. I think everyone has something to say to encourage others, especially if you've been doing this 20+ years!sonriehttps://www.mapmakingthroughlife.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504438272766227101.post-45002630936549330052023-01-18T22:19:22.012-05:002023-01-18T22:19:22.012-05:00I have a longer list to publish on my blog at some...I have a longer list to publish on my blog at some point, but I just started Kristin Lavransdatter (Undset), after I finished The Lincoln Highway (Towles). I have several books on my list about parenting boys, and several others listed that I found by looking through my shelves. I bought a lot of used books last year at thrift stores looking to grow my home library. Good luck on your progress!sonriehttps://www.mapmakingthroughlife.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3504438272766227101.post-91374418324899810222023-01-15T15:52:37.173-05:002023-01-15T15:52:37.173-05:00I love your list, and one of these years I'm g...I love your list, and one of these years I'm going to make one like it, but for now I'm reading with my kids and not getting a whole lot more done than that. I am turning to Audible quite a bit lately, and I'm liking it. I used to not like listening to books, but I'm finding a real delight in feeding my mind while I do the dishes or fold the laundry. I've been in a teacher in-service kind of mode--needing encouragement and inspiration, so I've reviewed Teaching From Rest by Sarah Mackenzie and listened for the first time to Call of the Wild + Free by Ainsley Arment. I find it funny that I, a homeschool veteran of over 20 years, can listen to far less experienced homeschoolers and find myself inspired and my heart fed. Makes me wonder if I might have something to say to encourage others . . . but I'm not feeling it right now. :)Aflyonmyhomeschoolwallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746892667170459729noreply@blogger.com
