____ Great Places to Get Books _____
- Local Library - I realize this isn't an option for everyone, but I heavily utilize our library. If they don't have books you want, especially if they are newer, request them! Libraries want to fill their shelves with books their patrons want to read and are normally happy to fulfill book requests. If they don't have a book and it's too old for them to get, they can often get books via interlibrary loan as well.
- Libby App - The Libby app is a great way to have access to free audio books as well as e-books. You can use a library card from anywhere (some places will give you library cards online reguardless of where you live), and access thousands of audio books and e-books to check out for free.
- Better World Books - I love what this company stands for. You can buy used or new books from small bookstores, and support getting books in the hands of those who need them. What more could you ask for? betterworldbooks.com
- Thrift Books - They offer a massive selection of used books. Earn free shipping with purchases of $10 or more as well as points you can use on future purchases. thriftbooks.com
- Book Outlet - I often get the BEST deals by shopping at Book Outlet. They offer discount pricing on new books in great condition. They often have sales on top of their already low prices, and you can earn rewards to redeem on coupons for future purchases. This link gives you a $5 coupon to use on your first order of $25 or more. (I'll get a $5 coupon too!). Shipping is always free for orders over $35. bookoutlet.com/loyalty/referral/LsWiurDY?c=url
- Bookshop.org When you buy a book from bookshop.org you can choose a local bookstore to support. This is better for authors and booksellers, keeping the community strong.
- Libro.fm - Like bookshop.org, libro.fm seeks to support local book economies through the purchase of audio books. Choose a local bookstore to support or let libro pick one for you. Use this referall code to help me get more fantastic books to review for you: https://libro.fm/referral?rf_code=lfm511283
I’m Laura, homeschooling mom to three. I’m excited to share our child led, literature based, unit study approach to homeschooling. No two homeschools look the same. My hope is that by sharing my journey, I can offer support, encouragement, and inspiration to help you think outside the box to create a dynamic homeschool experience tailored to your family.

I’m Laura, homeschooling mom to three. I’m excited to share our homeschooling journey with you. We tend to follow a child led, literature based, unit study approach to homeschooling, but I like to pull ideas from many different educational philosophies. The great thing about home education is that each family and life stage is so different. No two homeschools look the same. My hope is that by sharing my journey, I can offer support, encouragement, and inspiration to help you think outside the box to create a dynamic homeschool experience tailored to your family.

I’m Laura, homeschooling mom to three. I’m excited to share our homeschooling journey with you. We tend to follow a child led, literature based, unit study approach to homeschooling, but I like to pull ideas from many different educational philosophies. The great thing about home education is that each family and life stage is so different. No two homeschools look the same. My hope is that by sharing my journey, I can offer support, encouragement, and inspiration to help you think outside the box to create a dynamic homeschool experience tailored to your family.

How I plan my unit studies: youtu.be/gkwcuK7EJfc This video is a year old and I’ve simplified the process since then. We don’t do morning basket for most units. We also use a separate program for Grammar, writing, etc so I can tailor the program to where the kids are at. If I had infinite time, I would still write this for them on a different level for each one with topical literature for each child. I will pull in novel studies or pre-done things from time-to-time. I also only include math as a bonus now. I’m learning my limits and sometimes simpler is better. :)
I share my unit study lesson plans for free on my website: tickettolearning.com I usually share lessons AFTER I complete the units with my kids so I can add any information or resources we found useful. I don't always share every unit, but I do my best. :)

____ Great Places to Get Books _____
- Local Library - I realize this isn't an option for everyone, but I heavily utilize our library.

- Thrift Books - They offer a massive selection of used books. Earn free shipping with purchases of $10 or more as well as points you can use on future purchases. thriftbooks.com
- Book Outlet - I often get the BEST deals by shopping at Book Outlet. They offer discount pricing on new books in great condition. They often have sales on top of their already low prices, and you can earn rewards to redeem on coupons for future purchases. This link gives you a $5 coupon to use on your first order of $25 or more. (I'll get a $5 coupon too!). Shipping is always free for orders over $35. bookoutlet.com/loyalty/referral/LsWiurDY?c=url

I’m Laura, homeschooling mom to three. I’m excited to share our homeschooling journey with you. We tend to follow a child led, literature based, unit study approach to homeschooling, but I like to pull ideas from many different educational philosophies. The great thing about home education is that each family and life stage is so different. No two homeschools look the same. My hope is that by sharing my journey, I can offer support, encouragement, and inspiration to help you think outside the box to create a dynamic homeschool experience tailored to your family.
