I've never actually read "The Well Trained Mind" BUT I use 1/2 of their curriculum. First Language Lessons and Story of the World. It's awesomeness!

I'm becoming obsessed with the model of Classical Education! It is what my school teaches (did you know I just became a third grade teacher?). : )

I am liking the Hunger Games and am thinking you definitely would too.

I have She's Come Undone if you'd like to borrow, friend. LMK.

Jess said...

Can we read "Life Together" together?? And discuss? And have an excuse to have coffee once a week while doing so?

The Traveler's Gift by Andy Andrews, one of the best books I've ever read!
