    Anne E. White, Charles Kingsley

    Paperback (Anne E. White, Dec. 29, 2019)
    What was the unique value of Madam How and Lady Why that made it a staple of Charlotte Mason’s classrooms, long after its lessons on earthquakes and volcanoes seemed out of date? Through a father’s conversations with his son, Charles Kingsley connects the small, concrete things in front of us with the processes that have shaped and are shaping our planet. Can we come back from a walk with our minds (if not our pockets) full of wonders? This guide, written especially for young students and their parents/teachers, contains an edited and updated version of the second half of Kingsley’s book, plus lesson notes for one year’s work.
