Welcome to the second month of Homeschool Mama’s Book Club! The member’s of the Homeschool Beginner’s Facebook group picked the book title via a poll. This month we will be reading Teaching from Rest by Sarah Mackenzie. I think I first heard about Sarah Mackenzie via another homeschool podcast which talked about her podcast The Read Aloud Revival which lead to me discovering her books The Read Aloud Family and Teaching from Rest.

You can order Teaching from Rest on Amazon either Kindle or Paperback version or purchase a copy of Teaching from Rest on Thriftbooks. If you are an auditory learner then you might want to check out Audible since many of the selections we will read for #hsmamasbookclub will be available on audible.

Welcome to the first month of Homeschool Mama’s Book Club! This month we will be reading The Unhurried Homeschooler by Durenda Wilson. I must have been living under a rock or something because I had not heard about this wonderful book until some homeschool mama friends suggested it as a book title choice! I am so very glad that it was voted as the top pick for our inaugural homeschool mamas book club.

Meet Durenda Wilson author of The Unhurried Homeschooler

Durenda has been homeschooling for over 23 years and is a mom of eight (born 1991-2004).  She has graduated 5 so far with two still at home. She’s been married to Darryl for 29 years and they have 6 grandkids.  Durenda is convinced that home educating is an incredible blessing, but only if we don’t let it hold us hostage to unnecessary expectations and notions of what it “should” look like. The heart of her message is to encourage families to think outside the box and take time to enjoy this amazing journey.  She firmly believes that children are naturally curious and if parents keep things simple and unhurried, their kids will become lifelong learners.

Durenda has written The Unhurried Homeschooler-a simple, mercifully short book on homeschooling and Unhurried Grace for a Mom’s Heart-31 days in God’s Word.  She is the owner/host on her podcast Durenda Wilson and blog, Durenda Wilson.com

 

You can order your book on Amazon either Kindle or Paperback version or purchase a copy on Thriftbooks. If you own a Kindle then you might want to check out Kindle Unlimited since many of the selections we will read for #hsmamasbookclub will be available on Kindle Unlimited.
