Myth vs Reality: Investigating Historical Myths and Sources

Very pleased — concise, thought-provoking, and well-suited to teens. The single lesson format and 55-minute duration made it easy to fit into our schedule, and my teen came away more aware of how bias and media shape historical memory.

Phoebe and Her Unicorn — Volume 1 Book Club

We signed up our 12-year-old for Phoebe and Her Unicorn — Volume 1 Book Club and it hit all the right notes: reading, discussion of visual storytelling, and hands-on creativity like designing unicorns and mini comic strips. Meeting once a week for three weeks made it easy to fit into our schedule, and the steady pacing kept him engaged without feeling rushed. He came away excited about the story and kept sharing ideas about friendship and character design. I would recommend this to families with kids ages 8–13 who enjoy graphic novels and creative projects.
