Every year, I think 'this is my favorite History / Bible / Literature,' and every following year, the new one blows me away all over again," writes Allison H of Bridgeport, WV. "I have yet to part with any of our Sonlight books, and we've all enjoyed rereading many of the earlier Readers and Read-Alouds. Sonlight has given my children a broad view of the world and a deep connection with each other." Pictured, Seth (13), Ruthie (9), and Hadley (11) enjoy a history lesson while getting ready for the day. The H family has been Sonlighting for seven years.

No bland textbook can provide Sonlight moments like this!. Science Activities Vol. 2 and the accompanying Discover & Do DVD [from Science A] provided many hours of wonder, excitement and fun at our house this year. I am so grateful to Sonlight for helping us foster an enjoyment of Science through wonderful books, a well-organized IG, the ready-to-use supplies kit and hands-on activities. Jonathan (6) and Caroline (7) were so excited when their Science A experiment successfully created wind. They are now starting their third year of Sonlight with Core B and Science B.

"Learning through literature enables my kids to feel like they know the characters and to gain a deeper understanding of the past and the world around them. We considered going back to a textbook approach for high school, but after one tedious chapter in a history book, we were reminded what a difference Sonlight makes. My younger kids could answer the test questions better than my high schooler who read the textbook because they'd been reading about the same period in The Story of the World. Making history come alive is a much better way to learn!" In their family's ninth year of Sonlight, Anna (11, Level 100) and Ellie (8, Level D) are eager to open their Box Day treasure.– Bethany N of Yorktown, TX
