Summary: MUST read for the new homeschooler!
Comment: We will be starting homeschooling in June of 2001. I have read no less than 7 books on this topic and this one stands out amongst the others. It is so informative, it answered all of my questions and then some. It gives very specific information on the different "styles" of homeschooling, loads of resources, and best of all you get to read about real homeschooling families, how they do things and why. The author does write with obvious favor to her own schooling method of choice, but not nearly as overtly as others I've read. If you are considering homeshcooling, then read this book before any others.

Summary: Best Book on the Basics and Beyond.
Comment: I borrowed a copy of "The Homeschooling Handbook" from the library and signed it out several times. This book is the best book I have read, so far, on the basics of homeschooling. It was very informative and helped me to get through my second year as a homeschooling parent with less stress. I would recommend it to anyone who is open to, or looking for new ideas or new ways to home school. This book is very un-schooling oriented but it helped me to find a balance between both the "normal" homeshooling methods and un-schooling. I would highly recommend it for first time home schoolers and those with gifted or special needs children.

Summary: Great Starter Book
Comment: This is an excellent place to start when you first being to consider the option of homeschooling. It offers a wealth information on where to start and issues to consider. It covers a lot of the startup issues you need know abut, how to integrate it into your own life and lots of brief stories from real people are used to illuminate whatever topic is being covered in that section. I particularly liked the section that covered the issues and concerns people might have about socialization for kids are homeschooled.

In many ways, it accomplishes what the "Dummies..." and "Idiots..." series books do...but with an intelligent, competent and professional style.
