About this listen

Those who have made the decision to homeschool their children have done so out of great love for them and a desire to provide them an excellent education in the context of a warm, enriching home. Yet so many parents (mainly mothers) who have taken up this challenge find the enterprise often full of stress, worry, and anxiety. In this practical, faith-based, and inspirational book, Sarah Mackenzie addresses these questions directly, appealing to her own study of restful learning and her struggle to bring restful learning to her (six) children.

I really appreciated this book. it uplifted my spirit and gave me courage. As a new homeschooling mum, I need all the wisdom and advice I can get. This book didn't pressure me to do more, or work harder. It reminded me of what is important to focus on. I felt lighter while reading it. Each morning I felt supported as I began my homeschooling day, all because of thr richness of Sarah's book. So grateful I had a friend recommend this book to me.

Encouraging and refreshing.

It's a fairly short read, so it's a book I can come back to again and again. If you feel overwhelmed with the pressures of being a homeschool mum, then this book will help ease that fear of failure.

A comfort to those who feel like failures.

This book is definitely on my "read it over and over" list. A very easy listen and provides lots to think about as a homeschool mum.

Inspiring!

love the author and her reading of this book. a good encouraging and gentle book for the weary or anxious homeschool mum. probably best for new homeschoolers and those who are overwhelmed. im used to much meatier, longer and more instructional books so it left me wanting more, like there needed to be more chapters, more elaboration. more information. but i felt the same about her other book "the read aloud family" so im guessing its just personal taste in content of a book. it was worth hearing 😊

encouraging for those who need it

Sarah’s reading style is a delight. She shares from the heart, and understands the thoughts of a mother. She is insightful, well-read, and encouraging.

Beautifully encouraging for the homeschooling mama.

This book was far too Christian for a book that had no mention of Christianity on the book cover or in the blurb. It has so many bible references that I had to stop listening in the first chapter.
I love Sarah’s other books & have enjoyed many of her podcast episodes…. But this book was just “too much” for non-Christians to listen too.
VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT AUDIBLE WOULDN’T REFUND AUTOMATICALLY …
AUDIBLE should definitely update the category/tags to include “Religion” & “Christianity” … I’m thinking I will call them.

Too religious …
