- From the back
cover:
- Deschooling our Lives is a
terrific overview of the things people are doing instead of
sending their children to conventional schools. Most importantly,
it is a collection of electrifying essays which challenge our
assumptions about education. Read this book to see how you can
live and learn with your schildren without committing them to a
twelve-year sentence of schooling.
-- Pat Farenga,
president of John Holt Associates of Growing Without Schooling and
publisher of Growing Without Schooling magazine
- Deschooling our Lives is an
empowering smorgasbord of key ideas and voices in the unschooling
movement. How wonderful to have so much, all in the same book!
Applause to Matt Hern for this radically sane, wisely assembled
collecftion.
--Grace Llewellyn,
author of The Teenage Liberation Handbook
- In a dark hour some day when your
spirits are flagging and you struggle to understand what it is you
resist when you resist being schooled, let the twenty-four voices
of Deschooling our Lives put steel in your backbone and
give you courage to say, once more, dear friends, once more into
the breach!
--John Taylor Gatto,
author of the best-selling Dumbing Us Down
