Sonlight has been a life-changing curriculum for our family. Five of our children have graduated and our younger children are fortunate to have older siblings who can relate and fellowship over the books they're using. They have a bond through Sonlight books that will last when their families someday visit each other. My 22-year-old daughter recently said, 'Mom, make sure the kids take care of those [books], I want them for my kids one day.' What powerful words; I've never heard any of my children say that about the dry, daunting texts we previously used! Isaiah's (9, Core D+E) interest in and knowledge of railroads broadened immensely through The Landmark History of the American People.

Sonlight has instilled a love of learning and curiosity about God's world in our daughters. When Afton was in public school, she hated to read (and, that's an understatement!). It must have been the content because ever since schooling with Sonlight, she has a tremendous love for reading and a deep love for history. Through rich literature, our daughters are able to learn about historically significant events, people, and places in a fun and engaging way. Who am I kidding? I'm learning right alongside them! Here, Afton (14) and Anja (11) read their Core G books with Grandma and Grandpa … who love Sonlight books too!

Sonlight's books encourage reading – anytime, anywhere. They are special enough to do what no school desk or computer could ever do: keep Joshua and new puppy Lizzie engrossed and engaged. Without Sonlight, our children wouldn't have developed such a love for reading. We changed curriculum for a couple of years, but thankfully, the Lord brought us back to Sonlight and we'll never change again! Joshua (10) is studying Core D+E. The H family, with three additional children, has been schooling with Sonlght for nine years.
