Title: Worst Homeschooling Book
Review: The Well-Trained Mind is the worst home schooling book I have read. I am very thankful that it was not one of the first homeschooling books I read because most of it is impractical, irrelevant and sometimes ridiculous. This book is very narrow and appears to be unaware that children learn by doing, that learning is meaningful, and that there are many ways to learn. The only type of person that might benefit from this book is an exceptionally mature, gifted, daughter who loves to read and whose parents have an unlimited budget for homeschooling. If this is your situation, then ask yourself if you would want to limit her with this teaching style. To avoid disappointment, consider borrowing this book from the library before purchasing it. There are many wonderful homeschooling books; it is worth the effort to find the one that is right for your family.
