While considering homeschooling a friend recommended a book called, "A Well Trained Mind" by Susan Wise Bauer.  I highly recommend this book if you are considering homeschooling or have decided to home school and not sure what curriculum to use.

   This book gave me the confidence I needed to finalize my decision and all the information on curriculum.  I call it my homeschool bible.  It'll get me through preschool to college!
