I'm Reading *Unschooled: Raising Curious, Well-Educated Children Outside the Conventional Classroom*

 Unschooled: Raising Curious, Well-Educated Children Outside the Conventional Classroom by Kerry McDonald.

I just started reading this last week.  Good read!  I already agree with the fundamentals of unschooling, even though we have always leaned towards unit study homeschooling.  I'm only about halfway through the book at this point, but it's been an enjoyable read.

The comments on goodreads.com are worth browsing.  The second half of the book appears to spend a lot of time talking about unschooling outside the home and institutions like the Sudbury schools, which feels like a hypocritical topic, considering it's a book about unschooling.  I may skim those sections.

Our library had the book, so it was definitely worth it for me to give the book a chance.
