IF YOU ONLY READ ONE BOOK ABOUT WHY TO HOMESCHOOL, THIS WOULD BE IT:
John Gatto is the author of Dumbing Us Down: The
Hidden Curriculum of Compulsory Schooling. John Taylor Gatto was an
award-winning public school teacher of 26 years. (I have read a most of
this book and it has been very illumining! An excerpt is at
www.cantrip.org/gatto.html)
He also has another great one : The Underground History of American
Education, which you can read at
