Very interesting book! I couldn’t figure out how you would compare these two men but Deborah Wuehler did an awesome job and I learned some new things.
Deborah compares there similarities first, which are amazing and then she compares there many differences. The differences are broken down into several categories:
- Education
- Views of Freedom & Equality
- Creation vs. Evolution
- View of Life Question
Deborah then puts in an area for discussion. At the end she has included some famous quotes for copywork.

Need some fun ideas to help make life interesting and fun this summer? Have I got the book for you!! This book only consist of 17 pages but oh, the fun you will find in it to do with your kids!!
No fun isn’t all about the kids, moms need time just for them and there is a whole chapter dedicated just for us. One of the ideas is to lock the kids out of the bathroom and ignore them and take a long bubble bath (doesn’t that sound good).
They have suggestions of how to get your child involved in the communtiy doing projects of love and even keeping creative writing going. There are some awsome ideas how to keep cool during the summer that I hadn’t thought of nor dreamed of.
Don’t miss out on this wonderful little book. Get yours now at https://www.theoldschoolhousestore.com.
Excellent book!!!! Having a defiant daughter this book is one that spoke dearly to me!!
This little 22 page book shows how to recognize the triggers in your rebillious child. Yes, it teaches how to disipline that child but to do it with loads of love. They remind us as Christian we are supposed to be discipling our little one to become disciples as the grow up.
They bring out that consistency is a big thing. What works for one child might not for another but you MUST be consistant to all of them. While you are working with your children take inventory and see how you react to them when they rebell. Then make changes in yourself, usually it isn’t all one sided.
Stay grounded in the word and work with that child to see what he/she has done is wrong and where they can see what God wants them to do.
This book is worth every penny that you will spend on it. I can hardly wait until I get the part 2 book.

Wow, what a book! It is simple to download this book and if you are looking for strength in starting a business from home, you need to read this one! The main area’s that it surrounds is:
- A Labor of Love
- Computer Based
- Creative Writing
- Business Support
- Tricks of the Trade
You have seen all over the internet different handiworks that kids can make this book shows how families have taken those handcrafts and made them into a family operation. A lot of these families are ones that have 6 plus kids.
The Cook family live in a a 34′ motor home with 2 parents, 2 kids, 2 dogs and a cat and run a sewing business and homeschool at the same time. There main product are made out of recycled jeans. I loved seeing how a family can not only live in close corners and get along but also go to school and work together.
This book is filled with awesome ideas on how to start your own business but it also tells how some had to change their life style so that they could get everything done.
One thing that was pointed out that your child could start a business just by writing beautiful little quotes for others. Start those little ones at a early age so that can see their gifts that the Lord has given them.
The book also goes through how to setup the business legally and what process you will probably have to go through.
I highly recommend this book! I feel that every family has something to contribute no matter how great or small. If we don’t teach our children to work now, when they are grown they won’t be interested and living off the government won’t mean a thing.
Thanks for putting this book together Old Schoolhouse!! Want a copy of it? You may get your own by going to http://www.theoldschoolhousestore.com.
