It has been long in coming that we are getting back on track both in reading full books aloud as a family and as a history curriculum meant for my elder children. We are reading Walk the World's Rim as recommended by BookShark Level 3 Introduction to American Studies part 1 (similar lines as Sonlight D). It seemingly took forever for us to finish as pregnancy, illness, camping, and life events took hiatus here and there. Yet, tonight in December of 2019, we pulled the bookmark from the pages for the last time as we continued on through the last three and half chapters.

My children (10, 8, 5, 2, NB 1 month) were met with a Cuban "dark one" slave, an Indian of Native American tradition boy, Spaniard Explorers, Mexican established monks and priests. They heard adventures of turmoil and travel as the group made way from one village to another with a constant destination in goal. Many different aspects of cultures were introduced and discussed. And many seeds of thought were planted.

We own a paperback Sonlight published copy of this book.
