This is the question every homeschooling parent is asking
Home is the primary classroom for every child and every parent searches for tools that help establish habits of scholarship, teach principles, and develop thinking and reasoning skills.
In an era where the deconstruction of language is one of the root causes of a culture spiraling out of control, incorporating a bedrock source for the development of communication skills is crucial. Teaching more may not always be the answer, but teaching for mastery is continually the goal.
Webster’s 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language is the perfect companion in homes that value education and focus on the intellectual growth of the family. More than any book in the home, other than the Bible, this dictionary has a profound impact.
