About this title

About the Author:

Ashley (Strayer) Wiggers grew up in the early days of the home schooling movement taught by parents, Greg and Debbie Strayer, who are authors of numerous home schooling materials. A home school graduate, Ashley enjoyed a 10-year career as a national champion synchronized swimmer and is currently the head coach of the Pulaski County High School swim team. Ashley speaks at home school seminars across the country, edits a monthly online newsletter for Geography Matters, and is the author of the Profiles from History series.

Review:

"These books are very attractive with quality art work and visually interesting page layout. The large font size keeps the amount of content to an appropriate level so that students do not feel overwhelmed. The stories allow rare glimpses of the author's Christian viewpoint, but not enough to put off a secular audience." --Cathy Duffy Reviews
