Book A

Book B

For three years now, my dream was to write a cursive writing program based on picture study of classic works of art, using copywork as its base. This year, my dream came true, as four of our children helped me finalize the plans and get the nitty-gritties all worked out. We are happy to at last make available the program I have been talking about to homeschoolers at conventions for the past three years - FINALLY ready for your use!!! Our Pictures in Cursive series contains four volumes, each based around fine works of art. You may take a peek inside these books on our web site! They are incremental in nature; each book getting a bit more challenging than the last, with slightly smaller writing spaces. Consumable, each book contains 12 weeks’ worth of cursive practice, assuming you are doing cursive each day.

Numerous black and white illustrations. Suitable for ages 10 and up (perhaps younger if read aloud). 464p.
