“My son has free reading time at the end of our regular subjects. He generally chooses some book from the library or other entertaining fiction. Yesterday instead, he asked for his history book From Sea to Shining Sea because he "wanted to know how it turned out." He has never asked to read any other textbook in 3 years of homeschooling. Thanks for the great resources!”

“I wanted to thank you for all the wonderful suggested enrichment activities in the Hands-On Study Guides for All Ye Lands and From Sea to Shining Sea [included in the grade-level lesson plans and the single-subject lesson plans]. For example, my son (6th grade) just finished the All Ye Lands chapter on Russia. We visited the suggested website to learn about the two American priests serving in Russia. Oh! What an eye-opening site. We are so used to reading about missionaries in places like Africa and India. But Russia! It really hit home because of our family's Eastern European heritage. And my heart went out to all those orphans...Then we were able to find The Miracle of Our Lady of Fatima so the children and I have been watching two parts per day. And I mean all the kids--not just my 6th grader. It has sparked lots of discussion! The entire family is enriched by the enrichment activities!”

“The two history books (All Ye Lands and From Sea to Shining Sea) we've been using are incredible! The focus on untold stories about Catholic characters that helped discover and shaped the New and Old World is fantastic. No other history books tell the truth about our history like these books tell it.”
