I suppose I'm at that point in our homeschool journey where I'm more trusting of respected names and have learned enough to be okay with and accept things certain folk tell me. For instance: book lists.
We all know there are a blue-million book lists out there! At least! Up until recently, with "just" two children, I've relied on myself to search out and discover every title. Especially for my preschooler. With my first born I kept diligent lists of every book we read that made us laugh or cry. I've used it, thank you very much--however, we moved. New library system--uggh.
I decided to get out a favorite, "Honey For A Child's Heart". And see how the list for daughter's age looked. We've acquired many of the titles already, but there are a few that are leaving a decided "gap" in her precious education! :) Reserving them works wonders! No digging through shelves!
I'll be happy to see her eyes delight on such well-chosen books. I can breathe a sigh of relief, that she won't suffer from lack!
With son, we are so thoroughly enjoying the book lists of Michelle Miller & Truthquest History, as well as "Honey..." and Jan Bloom--"Who Shall We Then Read".
You gotta love a good book....or two....or three...or a hundred! :)
