This book is written from a mother's point of view. I started writing this book in 1995. It took me three years to complete and publish the first edition.

The time I spent being at home, playing and learning with my children, has been the most productive period of my life. (Pun intended.) Introduction Chapter 1 Can I Do This - Teach My Child At Home?
