Episode #79: Books as Treasured Friends
Updated: Feb 14
This week, I'm back with Bruce and Sonya Manson for part two of our conversation. The Mansons have attended my seminars in California for years and years. They are amazing veteran homeschoolers! In this episode, we talk about their family's most treasured books and the way literature has impacted them over the years.
You'll hear about:
making children lovers of books
the power of biography
missionary stories
service projects
how my method informed the way Bruce taught in the public school
why doing school at home falls short
