It’s more than a Book Discussion.
Join our community of homeschooling moms at the CMPEN Book Club, where three times a year, we embark on an insightful exploration of literature centered around the homeschool journey. More than a traditional book discussion, our Book Club is a workshop-style event designed to delve into the wisdom of each selected book, particularly focusing on the teachings of the Charlotte Mason philosophy. These gatherings offer an opportunity for moms to connect, learn, and be inspired by the collective wisdom of the homeschooling community. Whether you're a seasoned homeschooler or just starting the journey, our Book Club events are enriching experiences that nourish minds and empower the homeschooling adventure.

In Vital Harmony by Karen Glass
Charlotte Mason looked at the world and saw that it was governed by universal laws, such as the law of gravity. Then she wondered. What if there were similar laws that governed the way people learn? If we knew what those laws were, we’d be able to pursue education along the most promising lines.
She devoted her life to finding the key principles of education and then developing methods to make the most of them. The result is a comprehensive picture of living and learning that breathes life into education at every level - from babyhood to the adult years. It’s not a rote system, but a flexible set of ideas that keep education in focus.
These principles are for everyone concerned with teaching and learning. They are no more difficult to implement than the principle of gravity which allows you to walk, run, and even - when you know what you are doing - to soar.
