Author House Publishing, 2007
A Very Good Book
I found the book to be very interesting and informative. It's not a light read, but the number of interesting facts that I found ended up teaching more about the laws of the Partiot Act and how it came to be formed. The author gives both sides to the debate and many perspectives that I never thought of before. I recommend this book to anyone looking for a rounded comprehensive study of the ...

One of the best I have read yet!!!
Wow!! This book was exactly what I was looking for. Actually, it was above my expectations. I originally ordered this book because I was searching to find help with our homeschool. We are only in our third year, but I was feeling that things were very dry and redundant. I found MANY ideas and helps, but this book is so much more than a guide for a particular method. It starts with the heart ...

Great book!
A very helpful and enjoyable read. The stories really helped to bring the book into the context of our daily lives. It was easy to relate to many of the families in the book...and Bempechat's advice was reasonable and easy to follw. She didn't make the reader feel like there was an absolute "right and wrong" way, but points out some of the pitfalls we, as parents, all find ourselves in when ...

A must for every parent of a gifted math student
This is by far the best book I have read on the subject of giftedness in math. This goes through the myths of teaching math to gifted. It will hit home- as these myths are WIDELY believed by the schools in the USA. There is a plethora of very practical advice for parents. Many talented youth are underachieving in math in the USA because of they way the schools go about teaching. This book ...

Learning Like a Girl: Educating Our Daughters in Schools of Their Own
3 reviews
PublicAffairs, 2007
If you have a daughter to educate, this book is "must" reading
The reason that private girls' schools are important is that girls are important. Yes, "children are our future," but if past is prologue, girls represent a much better future than boys. Traditionally, boys are taught to win (and, often, win at any cost). You have only to raise your eyes from this screen to see a world powered by such dog-eat-dog ethics, disguised as a concern for ...
