His latest release about church history has been as informational and entertaining as all the rest, which I found surprising. Expecting it to be somewhat dry, I waited until our oldest was in 9th grade to introduce this one. Was I wrong! It ties together the other books in his history series, and just like his other offerings, it is highly engaging no matter what the child;s age. The videos contain different information from the audio and have relevant pictures of the items and people discussed, so I was happy to have bought the entire package. We have used other history programs with our children, but Philip Campbell;s series is their favorite. He has made both teaching and learning easy because the children are so engaged that they remember their history lessons well. This is our favorite history program by far for home-schooling, though we had bought it merely to use on long car trips when it first came out.","date":"May 24th 2023"},{"name":"Jessica S.","rating":"5","title":"Just beautiful","text":"Easy to read and fallow!
