Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I have not seen it, but from the website it looks really good! I showed it to Superboy and he is very interested. He has always loved writing and I know he has a novel in him. He started one, but he has been stuck for awhile on how to continue with it.This may be just the ticket.
What do you think????

I have a question for anyone who might have used this. My dd is 9, and loves to write. She's actually finishing up a novel she's been working on all summer. I see that this is more of a high school curriculum, and I can't afford it for this year anyways, but do you think it would overwhelm a 5th grader? She looked at the website over my shoulder and got really excited over it.

If it is too much, is there something like this at a lower level?

Thanks!

Well, we have it and WE LOVE IT!!!!!
Ds is so excited, and I cannot say enough about how impressed I am with the quality of this program. The DVD lessons are interesting, the textbook is excellent and the workbook is so very helpful. I really feel like ds is being led by the hand through the steps to writing a novel.
Ds has worked through 5 lessons so far and has been laying some great foundations for his novel.
Just thought I'd share!
