Now homeschool mom and former teacher Pam Barnhill breaks down the big ideas and practices of Morning Time for every homeschooler.
What they are saying
Homeschool moms are loving the practical advice and inspiration in Better Together.
My children are young, so it’s easy to be focused on our struggles instead of our goals. This book was the boost I needed to set my eyes on the prize and keep on keeping on adding “truth, goodness, and beauty” to our day.
