New Mores, No Mores/ Newbies are Rubies

Let me entertain you…with a book!

Here I am, hoping to give something to read that will be entertaining and somewhat of a humorous look into the life of our world of homeschool! Most of my characters come from this world because as a parent, a former teacher, and a child who hated school, I absolutely love the concept of educating …
