Publisher's summary

As a parent, you want to send your children into the world with healthy minds and vibrant faith. You want to develop a strong foundation for them. But in our fast-paced, outcome-based, technologically driven society, it's easy to lose sight of the innocence, potential, and uniqueness of each child. Childlike wonder can become lost in the fog of formulas that view children through the distorting lens of social expectations.

Awaking Wonder helps parents unearth the hidden potential of their child's imagination, learning capacity, and ability to engage authentically with the world.

Best-selling author Sally Clarkson will help you reach your child's heart of wonder through the principles that guided her in raising four children, all of whom made it into adulthood with a vibrant faith intact and are now flourishing in creative, high-performing professions. Listen to this book to:

• gain confidence in your role as a God-designed guide and teacher for your children
• help your children awaken to the wonder all around them
• develop healthy minds that can stand up against societal norms, providing them with a life-giving education and a love for learning

Must heard!

This audiobook brings first time homeschoolers mom or veteran homeschool mom peace that the most important thing is relationship.

Inspired

I wish I had listened to this book several years ago; if it had been available! It would have been perfect for a beginner, or even a seasoned homeschooler in need of encouragement. I was full of doubts, questions and lacking support when I started, and I ended up quitting. I regret that we stopped homeschooling. If you are looking to start on this journey or questioning if you should continue, I encourage you to read it or listen to it. It was a wonderful source of encouragement, inspiration and eye opener! Thanks for writing it!

This is a wonderful and inspiring book!

Loved it! It was delightfully filled with jewels that Mrs. Clarkson gives away daily in her podcast. Being well organized Awaking Wonder inspires me to continue some practices in our home while offering practical advice on how to add visionary ideals into our days.

Oh Sally! She’s done it again...

If you’ve not been introduced to Sally before you are in for a treat. This book has been so encouraging and helpful for me - not having a Christian example of being a mother and not a clear picture of how, what, where to create wonder, but a great desire to do so. I love getting a clearer picture into their life and home: what it looks like to inspire and create an atmosphere of wonder. Primarily this book is scripturally grounded and Sally gives great insight and wisdom on how to create a wonder filled home that follows Jesus.

Rich Encouragement

Thank you Sally for opening up your story and letting us see the years of family life that you walked through faithfully. Your ideas and example are so helpful and encouraging. I loved hearing you personally read this, and your calm warm voice added something special to the words I know you thoughtfully crafted. As a mother just beginning the home school journey, thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing what you’ve learned over the years.

Loved this Book

This book has given me the confidence to homeschool the way I believe God has designed it. I appreciate everything Sally said! My only critique is that I wish she would have said it faster 😆 I had to turn the speed up because she speaks very soft and very slow 😆 besides that excellent!!!

Wonderful!

What a wonder-filled treatise for a child’s heart! Loved it so much! Thankful, thankful!

One of her best!

I have read many of Sally‘s books over the years since I began my homeschooling journey. This is by far my favorite one yet! I think this should be required reading for anyone who is thinking of homeschooling their children. Thank you Sally!

Proof in the Pudding

There is such power in a testimony. I so honor the forerunners, the pioneers of Home Education. These families experienced tremendous opposition and more as they stepped out into a long forgotten art. This book brought me affirmation of my own ideals and hopes, as well as inspired me beyond! Sally is like the mama we all desire to give us that "you got this!" pep talk. She so gently encourages the heart to press on...one foot in front of the other. She pours out so much wisdom. You just HAVE to read/listen to this book!

A blessing

Thank you so much, this nourished my soul and was an absolute blessing to me. I look to Mrs. Clarkson as that elder woman I wish I had in real life. Her words are life giving.
