Solid Curriculum for the beginner/transitioning school, or the school who does not have access to many Latin teachers. We have used it for at least 5 years, and do not have intentions of changing it yet.
The advertising for this book played it up as if it was encouraging rough and tumble boys to be leaders and protect those around them. In reality it was a very thin version that concept set to the tune of bah bah black sheep lacking substance and direction.
This book is so good, we decided to use it for our men's breakfast study. We've also found it to be a valuable resource for some counseling. We're thankful for Dr. Rigney's ministry and for the great resources from Canon Press. Thank you.
I've been blessed by the sense of adventure this has put into the heart of my young boy's. Every boy should dream of taking to the seas and slaying the dragon that threatens everything you love.
I bought this book for myself, not for a child haha. The illustrations are fantastic, and Rose is solid!
My Son loves this book, and now looks forward to reading every night. This and Crispin's Rainy Day are his favorite books so far.
My Son loves this book, and now looks forward to reading every night. Out of all our books this, and sir Badalot are his favorite
My son is loving these, and has made our daily reading so much fun for me. He looks forward to me reading books to him now.
I have many grandchildren....and this is a new favorite. The words are a delight to read aloud, and the message is a good one.
I enjoy reading this and I have read it many times to different grandchildren.
This book series is my 20-month-olds favorite! She asks to have them read everyday and the story rhythm is so fun that I don’t mind the multiple re-reads!
I'm using the book and study guide for one-on-one time with our guys as they move from the high school to college/adult age groups. This book and study guide have been excellent to help these young guys see the big picture of manhood. Not just what to do and what not to do, but why it matters personally for their lives in Christ and strategically for subduing the world, getting the girl, and raising sons and daughters. Major thanks to the authors and publishers for producing a very timely and useful guide!
I love the simplicity of this book; it’s quick, simple enough that my toddlers understand it, and yet it’s rich with wisdom! I don’t think I’ve ever seen a children’s book that teaches this nuanced but important lesson. It’s a great reminder for me, too — next time I’m frustrated when the Blah Blah of our family won’t “be a PROPER SHEEP,” I need to remember to thank God for the courage he’s given her. Thank you for this book!
Every bit of this book mesmerizes not only my 3 littles ages five and under, but also me! My son has already memorized most of the book. Thank you for this beautiful, captivating story. We’ll cherish it for years to come!
We bought this book many years ago for our homeschool. We tried BJU, ABeka, Jensen's, and while all had their strengths, Our Mother Tongue is still the book I reference whenever I need quick and reliable information. My copy has gone missing. My (English teacher) daughter was seeking it recently. And so, we reloaded! Thank you, Nancy Wilson, for supporting our homeschool, our grandchildren's homeschool, and our local Christian school. We are very grateful for your knowledge and your hard, faithful work!
