"Sonlight's flexibility allowed us to do school together, despite the differences in my kids' ages," writes Rachel B. of Weatherford, TX. "We just finished our first year homeschooling two children, and I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was! James (5) was eager to jump into the History / Bible / Literature program Elizabeth (8) was using. Anne (2) got a kick out of 'supervising' her older siblings with me!" Elizabeth, James and Anne pose with all their Sonlight Read-Alouds.

 One of the things I love most about Sonlight has been how it has encouraged family learning. What could be more wonderful than watching big sisters and brothers reading and teaching the younger ones? When I'm reading from one of the many fabulous Sonlight books, it's magnetic. I may start reading to one child, but pretty soon, the room is quiet and several are listening and snuggling up on the couch! I just can't say enough about how the incredible literature has enhanced our togetherness. We've been using Sonlight for 13 wonderful years and are going to have our first graduate this year! Our youngest is just beginning her Sonlight adventure. Angelina (5) and Isabella (11) are using Cores A and H.

"Sonlight Readers helped my children learn to read with more giggles than tears," says Ruth L of Postville, IA. "There are books that inspire laughter, some that bring tears, some that inspire art, and some that inspire a snack break! Sharing these stories is one of our favorite things about Sonlight. We are falling more in love with the literature Sonlight chooses every year!"

Sonlight has kept its promise to give my children a love of reading. I'm building my home around your Cores. The six-, four- and two-year-old love to listen and sing along to songs about the United States. History is my daughter's favorite. She's usually reading 3–4 books at the same time, which she keeps in different locations around the house.On this day, a lake trip was cancelled due to rain. Without even taking off their suits, they climbed on the couch and got lost in their books. Grace (9), Bryce (6) and Reece (4) are immersed in Core E, and Readers Grade 4–5 and Grade 2 in the family's fifth year with Sonlight.
