Now why didn't I think of that? <br /><br />Puck is one of favorite books, ever. The older ones like to protest loudly when I choose that one for reading time, but honestly, it is so much fun and there is so much to learn in it, that it is great for all of us. <br /><br />My own Puck, almost three, cried when I sent our borrowed copy of Puck the Gnome back to the friend who lent it to us. He kept repeating my promise to "get new Puck Gnome." My five-year-old just loves to listen to the stories, he is at a naughty age, and I think the mischief appeals to him, as well as the kindness.<br /><br />My older children, studied geology this year, and this book is full of digging of jewels and minerals and stories about them.<br /><br />My eight-year-old, learning from the lives of saints, is at a place to discover how important love is in healing the world. The emphasis on honesty is a good value for all to hear as well, and as you said, Jacob Streit weaves this all in effortlessly. <br /><br />Great choice!A Homeschool Storyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07601636901131690015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876893946424365294.post-12810345973219563542010-02-08T21:36:11.021-08:002010-02-08T21:36:11.021-08:00Donna...you're a step ahead of me, here :D I&...Donna...you're a step ahead of me, here :D I'm hoping to share a nice post about that awesome book!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08272157134061700589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7876893946424365294.post-28806738799962493292010-02-06T18:31:25.126-08:002010-02-06T18:31:25.126-08:00Great review Jen!
