razorbackmama Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 24 books were removed, some new books were added. That accounts for the decrease in cost for the core with the new catalog. Were those book the ones people were complained about? The ones that showed non-Christians in a favorable light? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennay Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 My boys are in Core D now. I like the look of the EHE explorer for Core F. I tend to not follow the SL schedule and like the book notes by book, not integrated in day by day like they are going to be in the new IGs. I also don't use SL LA. My thought is to buy two EHEs for my boys, buy a used IG for the book notes, and then make my own schedule incorporating the new books and taking out the old books that were duds. The only problem is then I'll probably want the EHE for my girls (they are only 4 and 2) and I can't see buying two EHE that far ahead of time!

Sebastian (a lady) Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Are these the 24 books taken out of the core? I can't believe I'm considering buying a core 4 years in advance. No, actually. The books I remember there being discussion about included Seven Daughters, Seven Sons (for some gentle attraction to the opposite sex); Daughter of the Mountains (Nepal & India); and Shadow Spinner (which is a retelling of Arabian Nights that includes brief references to Islamic practices for prayer).

Kathryn Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Also, Core 100 will no longer have the option to be bought without the Hakim books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZooRho Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Also, Core 100 will no longer have the option to be bought without the Hakim books. I don't think that is true. BUT hey I have no real idea. Sometimes they offer different things via the web than they list in the catalog. I think they will still offer NEM but I'm not sure it is in the catalog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly she should edit out the bad info. I had seen that thread and didn't go back and check again. I'm not looking for that but I hope she makes it a bigger sticky than that note Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
