Book Reviews of For the Children's Sake: Foundations of Education for Home and School (Child-Life Book)
Book Review: The Gentle Art of Learning for the 21st Century
Summary: 5 Stars
As a child I was first introduced to the teachings of Charlotte Mason from my grandmother, who had been home educated with Charlotte's philosophy of education. Upon entering the 21st Century my husband and I decided we wanted to home educate our child using Charlotte's method, but needed guidance in the process. Through a friend I discovered Susan Schaeffer Macaulay's book "For the Children's Sake." In her book Susan uses a conversational tone to tell you her own story of how she came to be introduced to Charlotte Mason and her teachings. The author takes you on a journey of Charlotte's educational philosophy beginning with "What is education?, Children Are Born Persons, Authority and Freedom, A New Perspective, Education: A Science of Relationships, The Way of the Will, Reason and Unity of the Whole." I would highly recommend following this book up with Karen Andreola's "A Pocketful of Pinecones" before beginning Charlotte's "Original Homeschooling Series."
