Thanks to Sonlight, the first thing my children ask to do when they're bored is to READ! They delight in books, thanks to the ample library we now own. One of the best things about homeschooling is being able to choose programs that fit your child's unique needs and gifts. Sonlight has allowed me to do that for my children, which makes teaching enjoyable and rewarding. Before Sonlight, I was stressed out, overwhelmed and without direction. Now I know exactly where we're going and how we're going to get there! A happy, confident teacher produces students who are eager to learn. We wouldn't have gotten there without Sonlight! In his second year, Jackson (6) is studying Core C, as London (3) and Brooklyn (1) listen in.

"Rebekah (12) has become an avid reader!" writes Elizabeth B of Jeanerette, LA. "She just started reading her Readers on her own, and I'm a little jealous. My favorite time with her is reading; the books are just so good. We haven't found one that we did not enjoy. From action to suspense to joy and sadness, we have shed tears over some characters and rejoiced with others. We would have never thought about reading these books had they not been introduced with our curriculum. So thank you, Sonlight. We will graduate with you!" Here, Rebekah reads to her eager guinea pig, Bubbles.

"Sonlight offers many captivating and delightful books to its programs that keep the attention of my boys," writes Lisa W of Minnesota City, MN. "After the long, cold winters in Minnesota, we like to read outside in the spring. Along with our dogs, Misty and Sierra, and friendly chicken, Vanilla, my teenage boys still enjoy Read-Aloud time with Mom. The book I'm reading, God's Smuggler, is especially dear to my heart, as I served on an overseas mission trip in college to China with Open Doors Ministry. I feel privileged to share this personal experience with my boys as I read the story of Brother Andrew, who started Open Doors. Although homeschooling has its challenges, I cherish the time I get to spend with my boys, and Sonlight helps make that possible!"

Here, Joshua (13), Josiah (16) and  Lisa read God's Smuggler on the deck outside. They are using HBL H and 200 in their 11th year Sonlighting.
