I’m down to just one after 12 years of home school. Now it’s me and my youngest heading into hight school. He has multiple learning disabilities, including severe dyslexia. Several of your selections are interesting and I look forward to exploring them more. He wants to be a geologist, so we have much work ahead of us.
