Grow Wild Review: The Whole-Child, Whole-Family Nature-Rich Guide To Moving More
Have you ever had something come into your awareness at just the right time? That was my experience with Katy Bowman’s new book: Grow Wild. The past year and a half have been such a hard one for so many of us. As a parent, one of my big concerns was the health of my children – mentally, physically, and spiritually.

Wonder by RJ Palacio – Book Review
Wonder is a story about August (Auggie) Pullman. August was born with craniofacial abnormalities. The story takes place as August enters the 5th grade. He had been homeschooled by his mother, but now he will join his classmates at Beecher Prep. Wonder is all about his journey through the fifth grade. I bought Wonder over a year ago. We were doing a scholastic book order through our school board and I asked the boys to pick out whichever books they wanted from the catalogue. One of the boys had circled Wonder. I ordered the book not knowing anything about it. When we got the book, I read the inside cover…
