"One of the greatest gifts Sonlight has given us is the books that light up our day," writes Mandi V of Lynchburg, VA. "Our backyard was transformed into the forest in Kildee House, our house was an Alaskan schoolroom during The Year of Miss Agnes, and so on. We don't have to travel far to enjoy the living books Sonlight provides. By the end of our first year, I knew homeschooling was the best decision we'd made, and that we'd be a Sonlight family for a very long time." In this picture, Jeremiah (8), Jadon (6), and Ezekiel (3) think how their Animal Poetry can come alive.

"Thank you Sonlight for instilling a love of reading in my daughter! It is a daily occurrence to find Alanna (6) dressed up as the Sonlight characters we are reading about in Sonlight B. We love seeing her imaginative play that comes from her school books." As they prepare to start their third year of Sonlight, Emily B of Fort Worth, TX joyfully proclaims that they are Sonlighters for life.

I'm so thankful for Sonlight's Language Arts guidance. We kept plugging away and I took faith in the tips and pointers (and Ruth Beechick's book). I won't forget the week everything seemed to brighten and I wasn't 'making' Zeke read anymore. He now says reading is his favorite! Here, Zeke (7, Core C) and Amelia (4, Pre-Kindergarten Multi-Subject) think little sister Isabella's hair looks like Ping from Little Pear [Core B].
