It's me again...

Let me see if I understand, the binder and dividers have things printed on them? And there's a text that you can buy separately? So I could get the binder and dividers and use that without buying the text?

It looked interesting at the Hedge School site.
Thank you very much!

Hi,
I am looking for an opinion about Universe in His Hands by Mary Daly, I noticed that you have it in your library. Do you mind telling me a little about it? I saw on MaterAmabilis.org that it is listed under 6/7 year old and that it is a great introductory to natural science but I can't find samples of it online or any reviews other than at Hedge School.

I have dd7 and ds3, we're not Catholic but I'm exploring materials.
Thank you!
Jessica

If you like book covers, I recently added a number of images for books we share, several of which have only the two copies on LT at the moment. I hope it helps.

Your library is more similar to mine than vice versa - you're in my top four similar libraries. The similarity in our libraries must be partly because Kolbe Academy planned their high school curriculum around St Thomas Acquinas College's reading list. We went through part, or most, of high school at home with our kids so as to give them a grounding in the classics which they might find more difficult to acquire in later life. So far I haven't managed to persuade any of them to go to a Catholic liberal arts college, and with the youngest in university, it doesn't look likely that any will in the future. ("But MOM! I can only study nanotechnology engineering at Waterloo!")

However, the homeschooling worked, at least to the extent that each child is passionately fond of Beowulf, Xenophon, Homer, and the Icelandic Sagas. And all practicing Catholics.

Oops, I meant Credo, not Clarion...although eventually I'll get to the Clarions, too.

Hello,
I'm adding covers for my American Background and Clarion books, some of which we share. Also, I noticed your copy of Goodbye, Mr. Chips is missing the author (James Hilton) and a comma...it will then be shared by hundreds rather than two.

I just loaded a cover for A Children's Book of Saints AND The Young People's Book of Saints (same contents, but different titles and covers), in case you'd like to add it too.

Hello! I just loaded a photo of Children of the Covered Wagon.

I see you are a big fan of Lenora Mattingly Weber -- don't you wish someone was writing like her now? Exciting, with interesting character development, some suspense, romance. I only have a few of her books, but we read Beany Malone for our book group a few years ago, because of the author being a Catholic woman.

Please tell me about your audio book of Ballad of the White Horse, like who is the reader, and who published or made it. I would love to get it on cd, but can only find it (online) on CDs which are only for computers.

Your kind answer was very helpful. Thank you very much indeed.
As you know, you 've got a great library--and good advice in it.

Could you perhaps tell something more about your [Copernicus, Galileo and the Catholic Sponsorship of Science] book by Jane Meyerhofer?

Hi! I'm just starting out classically homeschooling. We have 26 books in common and it looks like we've followed the same path for Grammar 1. Would love to chat with you sometime!

survival in the storm great huh? but kind of sad but still great L.O.L

Thank you.
If our library is great, then yours is excellent! I am especially impressed by the fact that your children's literature appears to be twaddle-free.
