A Source to Check
One of the best sources for homeschooling
books, is checking the used book stores. There are a variety out
there... from antique shops to antique SHOWS and the good old library
book sales.
Some of my most interesting finds have been at these places. In fact, the two I will now speak of were such finds...
First... the antiques show. There I discovered a book called Seasons of Heron Pond a wonderfully descriptive account of the wildlife surrounding the area known as Heron Pond... and the author's interactions with it.
The second book was 50 cents (about 25p in England) at the library...
hard bound with a cloth cover... a little battered, but a bargain at
the price. The book is called A Country Year and is another wonderfully descriptive account of the experiences of the author during her soujourns in nature.
If you are having a hard time finding great books out there... check
out the antiquarian book faires, antique shows, antique shops, library
book sales and used book stores... you never know what wonderful things
you will find!
