The Homeschool Experiment by Charity Hawkins

I saw this book on my friend's bookshelf and asked to borrow it.
It is a novel of a mom homeschooling a first grader, a preschooler and a baby.   The reader learns about her challenges and victories throughout the entire school year.  The book is divided into months, beginning and ending with May.
Although this book was labeled "fiction", a "novel", to me it seemed more autobiographical and didactic.
I liked the resources she shared in the back (books, websites etc.).  There are also discussion questions included.
Homeschooling moms will be able to connect to the main character's feelings and thoughts.  Any person trying homeschooling for the first time will find relief and a friend within the pages.
