What Are Homeschool Parents Saying?

Here’s what Shawnele shared with us in an email recently:

I wanted to mention that I am a long-time homesteader and homeschooler and your book, The DIY Homestead, is my all-time favorite homesteading book because I love how every section gives projects/tasks for every level of homesteader. That is brilliant!

“And, because I love that book so much, I jumped on the Unit Study when it came out. Again, I LOVE it! It is so creative and useful!”

    Aliesha – I tried to send a sample but the email came back undeliverable. I noticed what I think might be a typo in the email you left on the site, so I’ve corrected it and resent it. Hopefully, I guessed right and you should be getting it today!

    Thank you for reaching out, Laurena! Did I ever back to you about this? I’d be more than happy to send you any samples you need. I’m not sure why the system didn’t show me this message earlier but I’m happy to help, if you still need it!
