Read-Aloud Revival ‪®‬ Sarah Mackenzie

Find out what we're reading next, and get the skinny on why we've chosen the books we did.

I’ve invited Kortney Garrison and Kara Anderson from the RAR team to chat with me about a favorite book when it comes to essentializing.

We've been talking and thinking about the book Essentialism by Greg McKeown a lot here at Read Aloud Revival, especially as it relates to homeschooling.

Today, we’re talking about what makes The Long Winter so gripping and so beloved, as well as how we handle problematic texts with our kids and why I believe that scenes and language we may find troubling aren’t reasons to leave great books on the shelf.

This year, let's fall in love with our ordinary, bookish, homeschooling lives.

During Jolabokaflod, you gift members of your family with new books, and everyone drinks hot cocoa and spends all of Christmas Eve reading.

Each new year, we think through all the homeschool curriculum we might want or need, and we pack it all in. It's time to put some of it back.
