Synopsis

Award-winning novelist Carol Plum-Ucci takes readers on her magical journey through four years of home schooling with daughter Abbey, now 11. This entertaining memoir will appeal to parents who want an intimate look at home schooling life as well as those who simply question the value of traditional education. Plum-Ucci states that no religious belief inspired her to home school, nor did she fancy herself a better teacher than what was found at Abbey’s local school. She fell into the home-schooling-mother role haphazardly but says now that if she can get five thousand families nationwide to lose their fears of home education and try it, she would be thrilled to have published this memoir. Winner of the Michael L. Printz Honor Book Award and twice an Edgar Allan Poe Award finalist, Plum-Ucci writes with the same edgy and glimmering insights that readers have loved for nearly a decade.
