Review
My Dear Wormwood, How do you think you will ever learn anything about British Literature if you don't read any? And if you are going to read some, how about my letters, appropriately entitled The Screwtape Letters? And if you are going to bother to read them, why not study them, analyze them for their literary qualities (I assure you there are many), and make sure that you digest every word I have sent you? You can do all that more easily if you use the Literature Guide provided by Progeny Press! Now get to work, you scruffy little demon! Your mildly affectionate uncle, Screwtape. Okay, so I made that letter up. But, Screwtape has a great idea there. If you'd like help in your homeschool with analyzing literature, Progeny Press study guides are an awesome resource! --Colleen's Quest Blogspot
