I was so excited for a new book from Nat Cassidy. He is quickly solidifying himself as a favorite author! I think with this collection, I can say I've read everything he's written, and all of it is the exact kind of weird that I love.

This was such a great read! I love stories like this, about the complicated feelings of motherhood and pregnancy, the way girls were forced to be sent away to homes to have their babies, it's a thing that I will nearly always enjoy.

Quotes by Emily Cook  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Just because a book is considered “children’s literature”, doesn’t mean it’s childish. Many of my favorite books are written for children! A good story is a good story, and you will find that you enjoy many well-written books just as much (if not more) than your children.”
Emily Cook, A Literary Education: Adapting Charlotte Mason for Modern Secular Homeschooling

“Our aim in education is to give a full life. We owe it to them to initiate an immense number of interests. Life should be all living, and not merely a tedious passing of time; not all doing or all feeling or all thinking - the strain would be too great - but, all living; that is to say, we should be in touch wherever we go, whatever we hear, whatever we see, with some manner of vital interest. ~ Charlotte Mason”
Emily Cook, A Literary Education: Adapting Charlotte Mason for Modern Secular Homeschooling

“The question is not, — how much does the youth know? When he has finished his education — but how much does he care? And about how many orders of things does he care? In fact, how large is the room in which he finds his feet set? And, therefore, how full is the life he has before him?” ~ Charlotte Mason”
