The Year of Learning Dangerously





When we started this experiment, I thought I knew what a typical homeschooling family looked like. Homeschoolers were either fundamentalist Christians who wanted to isolate their children from the corrupting influence of modern society or off-the-grid hippies with a reflexive fear of authority and an inclination to make their own yogurt and shoes.

Thinking about buying this book (when it comes out in paperback sometime in the Fall).  Right now, I have enough reading material to keep me busy until then (so why purchase the hard-back right now?).  Besides, I like paperbacks better.

Got the book on sale from Amazon.  About a third of the way done.  LOVING IT!!
