by Charlotte Mason

revised by Sandi Queen $30.00

The search for just the “right” geography book – one that will tell your children wonderful truths about the world God made in an easy-to-read, conversational style that would bring the far-away places and knowledge of geographical truths to life for them – is ended. The end is the book you now hold in your hands.
Written by Charlotte Mason herself years ago, this is a geography book that will stir your child’s love of learning, gently explaining geographical terminology through Miss Mason’s unassuming, conversational style of teaching about the world God created in all its varied glory. Originally written for English children, our first inclination was to rewrite sections of the book to make it more geared towards American children. But our gut feeling was to leave it as it was originally written – from the point of view of the dear English educator who had won my heart with her methods so long ago.

We hope you enjoy getting to know about God’s wonderful world through the eyes of Charlotte Mason herself; and we’re honored to be a part of bringing it to your hands. 68p, paperback.

An Introduction to Natural Learning Using Her Methods

by Sandi Queen  $7.00

There are many excellent ‘Charlotte Mason’ books out there.  This little book does not intend to take their place.  It is a starting point – an introduction, just as the title suggests.  Read it first if you are contemplating a Charlotte Mason style education for your children.  In these pages you will find the basics of her style of education and where to look for further information.

by Anna Sophia Botkin and Elizabeth Botkin This product is now available from Chariot Press.

This book is not another Christian-teenage-girl “survival guide.” So Much More shows how Christian girls can wage war with the world and win. The Botkin sisters focus on how young women can rise above their God-hating culture and change it for the better.

Today, countless young ladies face difficult problems and challenging questions. While many long for godly purpose in their lives, their bewilderment mounts when they observe broken homes, distant fathers, overwhelmed mothers, degrading college courses, and a lack of spiritual guidance — both at home and at church. As hope for security and stability fades, it is no wonder that many young ladies feel orphaned, unprotected, and without hope for their futures.

Within the pages of this book, discover practical, biblical solutions for the young woman who wants to do so much more than just “survive” in a savagely feministic, anti-Christian culture. Find the answers a girl is not likely to get from her church, her peers, or her culture.

“You hold in your hands a rare gem, the fruit of godly parenting, biblical mentoring and thoroughly scriptural teaching. Its vision is one that should awaken every daughter to the calling she has to advance the kingdom of God.”  Jennie Chancey co-author of Passionate Housewives Desparate for God.

“As the father of five dautghters, I feel the weight of my call to protect them. This book, with wisdom, charity, logic and beauty, not only deepened that weight, but lightened the load. These young ladies have honoured their parents and have served generations to come.  I encourage fathers, mothers, daughters and sons to read this book – and that covers everyone.”  RC Sproul Jr.

“In So Much More the writers…have managed to expose the feminist lies that have indoctrinated our western culture and even crept into the church.  While the two young maidens wisely point our daughters to God’s Word and to the protection and leadership of their Daddy, they also show young ladies how serving one’s father as a daughter at home truly glorifies the Lord.” Stacy McDonald co-author of Passionate Housewives Desparate for God.

This book is a real breath of fresh air!  I enjoyed every page, including and especially, the appendix with its expose of Marxism.  Good to read and work through with your daughter. Challenging, even for mothers.  A brilliant book. Hardcover. 620g.
