Customer Reviews

Another great book by Mary Pride!

If you need a "shot in the arm" as you homeschool, OR if you are trying to make a decision about whether or not to homeschool -- this is a wonderful book. We all need to remind ourselves about what we hope to teach our children. Also gives valuable pointers on making education a positive experience for parents and children.

Wish I'd read this sooner

As with all the Mary Pride books I've read, I wish I'd read School Proof sooner. It would have saved me some experimentation in my homeschooling. I love the concept that simpler is better, and she really demystifies the process of education. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone thinking about homeschooling, or just starting out in homeschooling. This is my 7th year teaching my children, and School Proof served as a pleasant refresher for me.

A definite MUST for all homeschoolers

I have contemplated homeschooling for quite a while, but I didn't know where to begin. I felt overwhelmed at the whole idea--until I read this book. Pride sets forth her philosophy of teaching and explains how we can empower our children with the tools they need that will eventually enable them to teach themselves. I wouldn't start or continue homeschooling without first reading this book.
