"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!

"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."

"Sonlight Box Day!!" writes Kim B of Johnson City, TN. "It's almost as exciting as Christmas morning! We are in the trenches of First Grade, but our Second Grade curriculum arrived. Look at all those books! We are committed to falling in love with learning for our third year. It's a blessing to homeschool with my daughter. I never thought I could, or would, homeschool. Sonlight makes it not only doable, but one of the best gifts I can give her. We are so grateful for the Christ-centered, literature-rich curriculum that Sonlight offers."
