Books for Homeschool Parents

This Is My Home, This is My School by Jonathan Bean is an absolutely adorable portrait of what the homeschool life is really like. Wonderfully illustrated with a simple text, this picture book takes readers through the daily life as a homeschooling family, from nature studies to music lessons to kitchen-based activities (all in real-life, suitably messy surroundings)--and then to out-of-the-home field trips and co-op activities with friends. This story weaves together the learning and living that happens when schooling happens at home in a way that homeschoolers will instantaneously recognize. Includes an afterword from the author with photographs of his family.
