Homeschoolers' TestimoniesHomeschoolers wrote to us, following the two-year run of HUSON TRAVEL LETTERS, to share what the letters meant to them. We think you’ll agree that the letters did, indeed, thrill and motivate the students and could do the same for your famiy.
“Well worth the money spent. Children loved them. They brought geography alive. Excellent for homeschool. Let us know if you decide to do it again!" S.A., San Antonio, TX "Extremely interesting. A good history lesson, well written and fun to read. I liked the details, enjoyed the personal references. My husband, a history buff, was amazed at your information. He reads National Geographic and Smithsonian, but you told him more than he knew!" L.M., Midlothian, VA "I thought the information was excellent -- especially the in-depth coverage of certain events and little out-of-the-ordinary anecdotes about the people. We read them aloud and found them extremely useful as a creative way to teach map skills, history, etc. Thank you for allowing us to see the U.S. through your letters." M.K., Jefferson City, MO "The Husons' whole life seemed to be centered around the pursuit of adventure. The letters inspired me to investigate things I hadn't known about before." 13-year-old homeschooler, N.Y., N.Y. "Our kids followed your route in the atlas and experienced a fascinating sense of tagging along to each new place.” H.H.,Tonasket,WA "Awesome! Read as part of our homeschool geography, they’re like letters you would get from a friend. We will read them over again and would recommend them to others.” S.O., Harvard, MA "They were a joy to receive. We enjoyed them much more than I ever dreamed. We read them at our weekly family night. I wish you'd take a world tour now!" S.S., Salt Lake City, UT "Wonderful for children! The information was easy for the children to understand, good to pull out when studying a particular state. We intend to save them for use with social studies when the need comes up." A.W., Louisville, KY
