One of the best narrators I have heard on audible

The book is written as though it's from a caring mom friend and the narration matches.

SO GOOD

I started with the physical copy, and just had to have the audio book too! Many thanks to the author for sharing in your experiences, & sharing great resources for others to explore also.

EXACTLY what I needed to homeschool with confidence!!

The very first chapter confirmed what I already deeply felt: I was doing everything wrong. Literally every mistake she talked about making I have made with my sweet pre-K daughter. What was supposed to be an amazingly fun experience ended up being drudgery because of all the classic mistakes I made before reading this book. We were both exhausted from our first attempt at homeschooling. But I now have a renewed sense of joyful anticipation thanks to all that I have learned! I look forward to “unschooling” what we did this last year and starting fresh this fall by teaching best for the way my kids learn best!
