5 out of 5 stars

Fantastic resource
I had borrowed the book from a friend to get me started with homeschooling. The book is so good, however, that I had to have it for my own library. It's full of good advice and ideas. It's also good for the experienced homeschooler. You will refer to it time and time again in those moments when you get discouraged or when you want to reconsider how you go about your "schooling". The appendices are full of information on where to go for things such as state-specific information or where to locate inexpensive materials. This book is a great resource.

pretty good book
It is a good book. I'm only half way through so i'm not a good judge of this book. But I feel like I knew most of this but I also read a lot online. So I think it is a good starter book.

very good guide to homeschooling!
Very informational. Informed and accurate. A real help in the quest to homeschool. Makes it a lot less scarey and more "do-able" I like the book.
