Sara McGrath
Greetings. I'm a long-time homeschooling mother of three and the author of Unschooling: A Lifestyle of Learning and other books on "practical unschooling" self-motivated homeschooling, including a spiral-bound record keeping journal for unschoolers and an activity puzzle book. I blog at unschoolinglifestyle.com where you can learn more about my family's interests and my books.
In addition to homeschooling and education topics, I write about peaceful parenting, attachment parenting, natural parenting, breastfeeding, and nutrition, among other things. I'm also a Usborne Books consultant, so please think of me when you're looking for great children's books.
If you use Facebook, check out the Homeschooling and Unschooling pages where all education, homeschooling, and kids activities writers are invited to post their articles.
