Guterson, David.
Summary: Although Guterson teaches other children in a public high school, he and his wife teach their own four children at home. "The most important lesson he has to teach is that no matter where education takes place, family matters; homeschooling is just one way of embodying that neglected truth and reaffirming the bond between parents and children."--Back cover.
