About this audiobook
Children are born curious, creative, and wired to learn—and we value those traits in adults! Still, as our children grow up, we often insist they change to fit into the education system, where curiosity is replaced by curricula, creativity by conformity, and learning by memorizing.
But if you’d rather nurture your children’s curiosity, creativity, and love of learning, let me introduce you to the world of unschooling.
In this audiobook, we’ll explore some of the common questions people have when they first hear about unschooling:
What is unschooling?
How will my child learn?
Without a curriculum, what will they learn?
How do I know they’re learning?
Will unschooling work for my child?
But what if my child already has trouble at school?
What is deschooling?
How do I get started?
Life in the real world is much bigger and more exciting than a school can contain within its four walls. If you're ready to embrace life and eager to share its wonder with your children, unschooling might be for you!

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I like how boiled down and straight forward the book was. I didn’t like the fact that the audio was edited at all. Not only flubs and fluffs, but completely starting sentences over. No editing was distracting at times.
