"I stumbled upon Sonlight and fell IN LOVE with the world experiences I could offer my 6-year-old kindergartener," writes Teneal K of Tylertown, MS. "The Read-Alouds paired with Living Long Ago and the Timeline really bring the entire world to life. I love sharing real life scenarios from around the world, giving my daughter a much deeper scope than just our small corner of the map. We love Sonlight!"

"Sonlight's rich historical novels birthed a desire in Rebecca to one day write a book of her own," writes Beth W of Flowery Branch, GA. "At age 15, she wrote White Star, an historical fiction fantasy based on true events surrounding the Titanic. When she was 18, the book was published. 'I owe my passion for history and writing to Sonlight,' says Rebecca. 'During my impressionable middle school years, Sonlight exposed me to rich classics and thrilling novels that made history come alive. Thank you for inspiring me to create and write.'" Here, the young author, who studied with Sonlight from 5th through 10th grade,  proudly displays her work. Today, she promotes her book at signings and speaks to children about creative writing, the editing process and how she became published.

We love Sonlight because it teaches our children to think critically about what they are learning. It challenges them to carefully consider the worldview that the media and many of their friends hold. They are learning that the biblical worldview is supported by science (among other subjects) and they are learning how to defend their faith. Sonlight also breaks us free from the 'school at home' mindset by allowing a more relaxed learning environment and encouraging discussion rather than completing lots of worksheets. Thanks Sonlight!
