This isn't your basic how-to guide. It's the thinking behind the thinking.

Discover the philosophical foundation behind one of education's most influential thinkers. In A Philosophy of Education, Charlotte M. Mason presents her 20 Principles and explores the "why" behind education: respecting children as persons, forming living relations with ideas, and cultivating self-directed learners.

This Smidgen Press edition features a larger font with original page numbers preserved as margin notes, making Mason's most demanding volume genuinely readable. Perfect for homeschoolers, educational researchers, and anyone seeking fresh ideas for helping children love to learn.
