When starting a hobby or project you try to learn as much as you can about it before you jump in so that you have some idea as what to do. Homeschooling is no different. Taking the time to research the best method to homeschool is a good idea to help save time and money. These books will give a foundational start as to why you should homeschool and present ways to homeschool. Unfortunately I did not read these books when I started but fortunately knew how I wanted homeschool by learning from a Christian mothering support group. These books were recommended by another Christian homeschooling FB group who I trust their advice. I hope to read some of these soon and hope you can get wonderful information from them for your homeschooling journey.
