I also like your "Books for the Lutheran Home" link. We're going to try out some of the titles you recommended for families with young children. Thanks for the info on those two titles.

Reading it was pretty much a review of that class. I think I had also seen the book on a list related to classical education, which is probably what led me to read it. It's a pretty good overview of education principles. I think it generally avoids much of the trouble that more recent educational "science" has run into. See, if you had already read <em>Getting Things Done</em>, you might have a next actions list just for when you are at the library, so that you wouldn't forget it. It's a good book, and quite a useful system for getting a handle of all the "stuff" that comes into our lives.

As a first-year homeschooler, I perhaps should read it. Our church library has eight of the fourteen on your list. I think I really need <i>Getting Things Done</i>! I was going to check it out from the public library, but I forgot to do so while I was there. What did you think of The Seven Laws of Teaching?
