New Books Arrived!

I love purchasing books for our family, but was super excited when Robbie asked me to purchase all the books from a homeschool curriculum called Prepare and Pray (thanks to Torie for the recommendation)! Here is a snippet about the curriculum taken from the website:

"A vital part of any well rounded education will include emergency preparedness. This extensive, yet practical hands-on course will equip the participants to be ready to face whatever the future brings, while always acknowledging the True Source of our well being: God Himself!A 36 week literary unit study designed for the whole family, toddler through resident Grandma and teaches a confident, positive approach to impending difficulties using simple resources and family teamwork. Fear is not the object of this study, but it is our desire to stimulate a watchful, prudent attitude which will equip children and parents to develop untapped abilities, press through physical limitations, and respond reasonably and scripturally to threatening situations and the challenges of end-times living."

We just received our Swiss Family Robinson book in the mail to complete our book list for this curriculum!! Here are all the books we purchased, but you can check out their website at prepareandpray.com to learn more.

1) Swiss Family Robinson (make sure it has the original language like this one)

2) Reader's Digest Back to the Basics


3) Boyscout Handbook



4) Prepare and Pray handbook (Though this looks really good, I was a bit disappointed to see that most of their illustrations were copied from other books - I am hoping this was done with a copyright, but I did not see anything to indicate that.)
