WeE-Book; “The Great Books: A TOS Interview with Classical Educator, Fritz Hinrichs” by Kate Kessler

Welcome again and thanks for joining me in this third installment of three WeE-Book reviews.  For my final WeE-Book review, I read “The Great Books: A TOS Interview with Classical Educator, Fritz Hinrichs” by Kate Kessler.  Check out the second review here.

This book is essentially a transcript of an interview that the author conducted with Mr. Fritz Hinrichs on the subject of “Great Books”.  If you are new to the term, this e-book covers everything you need to know, and it thoroughly grabbed my attention on the matter.

Mr. Hinrichs offers a Great Books tutorial program to homeschooling families in an online conference-style class.  But he did much more than try to sell his program, he shared his love of books.  He also reminded us of the need to share this love and the knowledge of the classics with our children.  There is so much to be learned from the great literary conversation that has happened in times past and continues still today.  This book renewed my desire to share literary masterpieces with my children when the time comes.

The subject matter in this book would be appropriate for those who are new to the Great Book concept or those who already want to incorporate it but just need a good reminder of why to teach from the Great Books.

I hope you have enjoyed this review series as much as I have enjoyed reading the books!  There is one more Homeschool Crew review that I’ll be doing which is a full length e-book.  Come back soon to read the review of “Homework: Juggling Home Work and School Without Losing Your Balance”.  Until then, keep on growing!
