For the Children’s Sake: Foundations of Education for Home and School by Susan Schaeffer Macauley

Synopsis:
A classic text on homeschooling using Charlotte Mason’s methods.

Review:
For The Children’s Sake was a very inspiring read for me, as I’m homeschooling my girls and very drawn to Charlotte Mason’s work. That should come as no surprise, since the Charlotte Mason method is all about learning from living books. Susan Schaeffer Macauley is the daughter of the famous Christian leader Francis Schaeffer, founder of the L’Abri institute in Switzerland, so I feel like I can really trust her point of view. I felt empowered and excited after reading it and ready to dive in! Now I just have to wait another year and a half for Superfast Kid to turn 6.
