[A]n invaluable resource...Many of us hesitate to tackle Chesterton... he is perceived to be too lofty... Chesterton...should be introduced to every high school student...Brown has given teachers and parents a great gift...
Maureen Wittmann, author, For the Love of Learning: Using Living Books in the Classroom and Home
No education is complete without at least a sampling of Chesterton, and the mysteries are the best place to begin. How good of Mrs. Brown to make Father Brown so curriculum-friendly.
Mike Aquilina, author, The Fathers of the Church
Every text of Chesterton repays careful study. From it can be unpacked the wisdom of one of the great minds of Europe... This carefully constructed study guide will lead a new generation into a wondrous world of common sense and uncommon fun.
Stratford Caldecott, UK director of the G.K. Chesterton Institute for Faith & Culture
