I have to say this book has seriously inspired me. I've been so nervous to screw up homeschooling Rowan. But now I'm really looking forward to it. Not just because I think I can give him a great education, but that at the same time I will be getting an amazing education as well. I have to lead by example, read classics, and get my children interested in them. Most of what the author says makes perfect sense. Why shouldn't we learn in the same way the Founding Fathers did? I love that at the end the author gave an amazing list of books to start with and divided them for each age. Now I know what I need to get for Rowan to get started this year.
