Currently Reading *Anyone Can Homeschool* by Nicki Truesdell

 I've never read the books written by Nicki Truesdell, but after listening to her podcast, "The Nicki Truesdell Podcast," I decided to read Anyone Can Homeschool.  It's available on Kindle Unlimited, to which I have a subscription.  Her other book, Home Sweet Homeschool: Gentle Moments of Encouragement for Christian Homeschooling Mothers is also available on Kindle Unlimited and is my next planned read.

Here's a link to her book: https://nickitruesdell.com/anyone-can-homeschool-the-book/

Here's a link to her podcast: https://nickitruesdell.com/podcast/

So far, I am enjoying her book Anyone Can Homeschool.  It's a good introduction to home education for new homeschoolers.
