Hurry and download your FREE copy of Farm Girl by Karen Jones Gowen (reg. $4.99)!

“Set in the Dust Bowl of the American West, this true account of a child coming of age on a 1920′s Nebraska farm recaptures an era. Young Lucille Marker experiences survival during the Depression, one of the worst dust storms in history, and finally the disintegration of the close-knit community in which she grows up. Readers who like the books of Laura Ingalls Wilder or Willa Cather will enjoy Farm Girl. It takes place on the Marker farm, located near Red Cloud, the locale of Willa Cather’s Nebraska novels. Farm Girl takes one back to a time and place that no longer exists in American culture. Richly photographed throughout with over sixty authentic photos documenting the people and places of the story, this historical, easy-to-read book is suitable for use in the classroom.”

“Easily as good as Carol Ryrie Brink’s Caddie Woodlawn, Farm Girl is beautifully done and should be a treat for anyone who loves reading historical books. . . . It is a treasure that will be enjoyed by the young and old alike.”

I love the Little House books and Caddie Woodlawn, so I’m looking forward to reading Farm Girl as well! Sounds like a great resource for homeschoolers too.

Hurry and download your FREE copy of Stonewall in the Valley: Thomas J. “Stonewall” Jackson’s Shenandoah Valley Campaign, Spring 1862 by Robert G. Tanner (reg. $24.95)!

“The Valley Campaign conducted by Maj. Gen. Thomas J. “Stonewall” Jackson has long fascinated those interested in the American Civil War as well as general students of military history, all of whom still question exactly what Jackson did in the Shenandoah in 1862 and how he did it. Since Robert G. Tanner answered many questions in the first edition of Stonewall in the Valley in 1976, he has continued to research the campaign. This edition offers new insights on the most significant moments of Stonewall’s Shenandoah triumph.”

Sounds like a nice early Father’s Day gift or great reading for anyone who enjoys history. Great resource for homeschoolers!

Did you know that you may be wasting a huge portion of your time learning Spanish due to inefficient learning methods? Let me tell you how you can learn FASTER. It’s all about a new technique called Intelligent Cumulative Exposure. As much as we’d like to think that we can improve our Spanish by watching movies or just being dumped in the right country, our brains are proven to best absorb new language concepts one-at-a-time, in small increments. And I don’t mean just learning word lists one-at-a-time. I mean building your actual sentence-forming skills from the ground up. Read more…
