This is a list of children's homeschooling books - stories about homeschooled children (or at least children that don't go to school!). I haven't had a chance to read all of these and check how much they cover homeschooling, but I will try to review them as soon as I can.
The Story of the Trapp Family Singers by Maria von Trapp
Wild Thornberries by Mark Dubowski
Ballet Shoes by Noel Streatfeild
No More School by Meg Harper
Secret of the Lost Colony by Rebecca Price Janney. Also Mystery at Loch Ness and Search for Amelia Earhart.
Surviving the Applewhites by Stephanie Tolan
Addie McCormick and the Computer Pirate by Leanne Lucas
Schooled by Gordan Korman - although this is apparently a terrible representation of a homeschooled misfit.
The Adventures of Lil'Wolf, Twinkie, Toes and FlowerGirl in the Homeschool Forest by Jacqueline Campos
Laddie by Gene Stratton Porter
The Treasure Seekers by Edith Nesbit
My Side of the Mountain by Jean Graighe George

I am still working on this list of books about homeschooling - if you can recommend a great children's book to add to this list, I would love to hear from you.
Just starting out? Wondering how to really get started with homeschooling? Here is my advice on how to start home school.
Oh my goodness! I am a home schooling mum of 4 and I have NEVER found a better site! Thank you so much. Blessings, Jenny (New Zealand) I wanted to say THANK YOU for your fabulous website. I found your website, and finally I have the confidence to take the plunge and take my daughter out of school and educate her at home, thank you, thank you. Marina (UK) I cannot get over how much great information and super ideas you have here. Fantastic! Ruralmama (USA)
