Highly recommended.&quot;&lt;br&gt;--Lorrie Flem, editor of Teach Magazine&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;Surely, you will, as I did, find something to enhance the education of your children immediately. Catherine makes it so simple for us!&quot;&lt;br&gt;--Bob and Tina Farewell, Lifetime Books &amp; Gifts&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;As a teacher of twenty years, I have greatly appreciated Catherine's guidance in introducing the Charlotte Mason method in my teaching.&quot;&lt;br&gt;--Maggie Dail, MA, of Master Enterprises Learning Center&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&quot;Catherine Levison has written the perfect introduction to the Charlotte Mason method.

    <body><![CDATA[I love this book.  The author takes the essentials of the Charlotte Mason method and organizes them into easy to understand sections.  <br/><br/>This book doesn't go through and discuss all of Mason's works.  It's just the facts, ma'am.  And it's exactly what I wanted.  I already had a pretty dece...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/23706699">more...</a>]]></body>
