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.

"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 has helped us create a new family culture around fantastic literature. We love having amazing books for our kids to read. We now live in a country [Fiji] where books are not readily available, libraries are sparse and there are very few stores with children's books available. The Read-Alouds became our family entertainment and provided something routine and rich for our family as we transitioned into life overseas [as missionaries for Youth With a Mission]. We're so grateful for the quality, depth and worldview Sonlight provides. The excitement of having great stories at our fingertips has moulded our family into lifelong learners!"
