Many of the last years was in a whole language, team teaching situation. Over a period of several years I accumulated thousands of dollars in paperback books, that I paid for myself, all keyed to each unit I taught. I could always depend on Usborne books to have a well illustrated, visually appealing, but informative book I could add to my unit box.

Now, not so much. She adores Francesca Lia Block, but those are faerie books and not witch books. Now that I think about it, I can't seem to get her to read a witch book at this point. The best part of homeschooling, for me, has been the reading. Re-reading stuff and reading things I never had time for when I was younger and discovering new work. :-) Michelle was on a serious witch roll a couple of years ago. Now, not so much.
