I found this book on Amazon and it has been amazing! From page one it calmed my nerves and made the whole process easy to wrap my mind around. Our biggest question was discussed within the first few pages! I was immediately re-energized with the original excitement that I had for homeschooling and wanted to tell every mom that I knew how excited I was for our family and how much this book meant to me. -Amber, RaisingAdventurers.blogspot.com

I found Ms. Broughton's writing very easy to read and easily understandable. ...chock-full of fantastic information, getting down to the nitty-gritty of homeschooling research and what people really need to know... I would recommend this book for anyone beginning to think about homeschooling or looking for information on how, and where, to start. I really enjoyed the input from current homeschooling families. -DaLynn McCoy for DenSchool.com
