The Charlotte Mason method incourages the use of "living books" which feed enthusiasm for life and learning about nature and one's own place in it. Contrast this with the effect of a text book, which can suck the life right out of you!

Albert
All three of us girls enjoyed this one, and discovered something on the second and third readings! First I want to recommend it for the drawings. They seem to glow! The story, although far-fetched, is delightful and sweet. One day, when Albert sticks his hand out the window to check the weather, a twig lands in his palm...then another, and another, until a couple of cardinals have built their nest in his outstreched hand! Soon Albert learns that many things going on outside are not just "for the birds"!
