mumto2 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Bumping -- I always planned to use it but... We tried his literary analysis book -- I can't find the name of it. Meant for grade 7 and up. Ended up stopping. Just too deep of topics-- chapter one had abortion and euthanasia. Samples written by his children sometimes him. Nothing really wrong with that except the books they were written about were not usually part of the course. Dd had never read them. She might in high school, but not at 12. The essays when on topic (being that weeks reading) were still illustrated with unread books. I wouldn't have minded so much if reading those books had been required or if we had jumped into the series part way. But this is the first book! Very frustrating for someone who likes to have the whole course availiable to always be missing pieces. We gave up. Anyway I am curious if rhetoric is different.
