It wasn't long after I opened my first Sonlight Instructor's Guide that I realized everything I needed to succeed was at my fingertips. We chose Sonlight 14 years ago, and in June, we had our first graduate. We've had such an amazing journey, and each of our five children has flourished! The literature has been outstanding, and our times of reading aloud together have created many cherished memories. We've traveled to faraway places, experienced great adventures and wept at moving situations, all while snuggling on the couch or sunning ourselves in the yard. We could never put a price on the bonds that have been formed. Angelina (6, Core B) has been on her Sonlight journey for two years. Here, Mom and daughter share a Sonlight moment.

"We've been a Sonlight family for most of the past 15 years," writes Melissa C of Wray, CO. "It was the first curriculum we ever researched and, after looking into dozens of others (and using some of them), the one we came back to. I love that the Instructor's Guide does all the planning for me. Our bookworm kids devour the Readers, and even our kids who didn't enjoy reading have been captivated by the literature. Read-Aloud time is, hands down, our favorite part of the day! It's like pulling old friends off the shelf as we read and reread them to our five kids." Eloise (13, HBL W) celebrates the end of the year with her finished stack of books!

"Sonlight is helping us cultivate loving ambassadors for Christ," writes Tanya S of Asia. "Sonlight's stories of world cultures help our children embrace the unique calling God has placed in their lives. The books give honor and credibility to our family's work as overseas gospel workers. Through her readings, my preschooler is learning to see beauty and value in the unique qualities of all people. I see it in her actions and hear it in her prayers. It's such a relief knowing I can trust Sonlight's materials and content to be appropriate and Christ-centered. Being well organized, beautifully illustrated and infectiously fun is just icing on the cake!" Naomi (4) and Keira (2) are exploring Core P4/5 in their first year of homeschooling. They love to share their Sonlight books with Jiajia (5) and other local friends.
