The Awakening of Miss Prim


Natalia Sanmartin Fenollera turns out to be a kindred spirit to those who homeschool, love literature, believe that small is beautiful, and long for the simple life. Her first novel, The Awakening of Miss Prim, is a virtual apologetic for John Senior's Thousand Good Books approach to education, disguised as a Jane Austen romance, populated with characters who have imbibed the spirit of G.K. Chesterton. If this sounds too good to be true, give it a try - she actually pulls it off.
