The Tanglewood’s Secret
What an excellent first witness and introduction to Jesus this book makes! Although I want to keep our copy for Little May to read when she’s older, I may pass it on long before then. It’s that good.

In a Nutshell:
We LOVE My Father’s World!!! It’s not perfect but it’s very well thought out. The girls are receiving a well-rounded education and a heart for God.
I really enjoyed learning Townsend’s story and the birth of Wycliffe, but much of the book was dry and bogged down with details. To be fair, I think it was meant to be a one-stop reference/biography and therefore isn’t really suitable as a read aloud for 3rd and 4th graders.
We’ve read four books of this series out loud so far, and this one is by far my favorite. The story moves at a fast pace and I didn’t want to put it down.
An excellent, excellent book for homeschool. This book is a mini art curriculum that can be spread over a week or more, which filled a gap in the My Father’s World curriculum we’re using.
